Your Head / Your Heart - Hostage Calm

Caught crying at the bar

As your friends danced from afar

Your necklace hides the scars

Where seventeen ripped you apart

You said, «If this year’s like the past

Well I don’t think I could last.»

Cause now your head and your heart are coming apart

And falling far from view

Your head and your heart are coming apart

You said you’d made it through

All the hurt and the harm

It’s tattooed on your arm:

It doesn’t make it true

Because your head and your heart are coming apart

And falling far from view

Your feet move awfully fast like

Someone on the run from her past

Your heart beats kinda hard

Like one that’s spent time apart

You said, «If this years like the past

Well, I don’t think I could last.»

I’ve seen happy people, but

Only from afar

Now you talk like something’s missing

Those lips too used to kissing

They shiver while you cry

Did you think they’d kiss me goodbye?
