Take this Lonely Heart

by Nothing but Thieves

Verse 1

I feel younger everyday

The more I grow, the less I seem to know

I've been trying to keep my head straight

Where I roam, it never feels like home

Pre-Chorus

You feel the weight of the world coming down on your head

There's people looking at you, and now they're pulling you back

I've got a circle of ink, it's in the palm of my hand

And I think it will be there for good

We take a piece of ourselves, we draw a line in the sand 

We say "don't cross this, or else," and then we put up a flag

Oh, how we worship the things that we don't quite understand

Oh, it's more dangerous than you know

Chorus

I've got a message that you can't ignore

Maybe I'm just not the man I was before

Take this from me, take this lonely heart

'Cause I, 'cause I don't need it no more

I've got a hunger you will never taste

Craving a desire that won't go to waste

Take this from me, take this lonely heart

And I, I'm gonna make it my own

Verse 2

Someone took my ego away

Hey, so long, won't miss it now, it's gone

Now my youth is being replaced

So, good night, it's gonna be alright

Pre-Chorus

'Cause now I drink the good wine and now I get out of bed

And now I let myself love and I'm not scared of the end

I take it all on the chin and I would do it again

Because maybe it's time for a change

I've got a pain in my neck, because I keep looking up

I'm searching what's coming next, but it won't come from above

And there's a hole in my chest, like there's a hole in the sun

So tell me, what's coming next? I'm searching, what's coming next?

Outro

It's a chance that you take, that you lose who you have been

When you break all the chains that you feel comfortable in

It's a chance that I take, so my hunger can be free

In the end, in the end, in the end, in the end
