Foolish Heart

Once upon a time there was a boy Wanted to trade his misery in for joy Took a chance took everything Clumsy hands were raging Found myself bleeding on the floor Begging for more So I tried to embrace the summer days But when it is over I am torn apart and glue the shards of my Foolish heart Tried to escape with pills and rage Can not stay sober When it gets dark I light the shards of my Foolish heart Dark clouds trapped inside his head And all the world in shade All the good things grey Shot his gun and ran away Never knew another way Something is always missing, something is wrong And he was gone So I tried to embrace the summer days But when it is over I am torn apart and glue the shards of my Foolish heart Tried to escape with pills and rage Can not stay sober When it gets dark I light the shards of my Foolish heart Give it all, there is no waking It is all just for the taking Just another try That you can not deny Take your best shot It is now or never There is nothing to gain And nothing will remain And when you think it is drained The flood comes back again And again, and again The flood comes back again And again, and again The flood comes back again So I tried to embrace the summer days But when it is over I am torn apart and glue the shards of my Foolish heart Tried to escape with pills and rage Can not stay sober When it gets dark I light the shards of my Foolish heart Give it all, there is no waking It is all just for the taking
