Take This Lonely Heart - Nothing But Thieves

I feel younger everyday
The more I grow
The less I seem to know

I've been tryin' to keep my head straight
Where I roam
It never feels like home

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

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 won't ever 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

Someone took my ego away
Hey, so long
Won't miss it now it's gone

Now my youth is being replaced
So goodnight
It's gonna be alright

'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
'Cause 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?

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
And I'll make it my own

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 won't ever 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

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
