Back when we were kids, what we did
Was let each other not know where we hid
Under the masks, under the sheets
And we'd help each other sleep
But over the course of life, it erupts
We're dragged over the salt beds and poured in cups
Candid we kept the times that we wept
When we couldn't go to sleep
Hearts bleed, what you wanna be like, honey?
No, can't let you be that way, my darling
Follow me down the the edge of the woods
I swear that I've never seen you look so good
Forgive me if I love you too hard
These golden streets, so corrupt
With never ending sidewalks, and up above
They never ask, they never need, as my feet begin to bleed
And up on the stilts, colossal and grand
A charismatic icon waves his hands
Over our heads, over our drinks, and we finally get to sleep
Hearts bleed, what you wanna be like, honey?
No, can't let you be that way, my darling
Follow me down the the edge of the woods
I swear that I've never seen you look so good
Forgive me if I love you too hard
