Heart On My Sleeve - The Crüxshadows

Your eyes

They often lie

And leave me feeling

Misunderstood

Our tragedy

Plays out like a symphony

A breath and a whisper

Are your clues

Inside we shake

Because we’re afraid

But we’re certainly not afraid of you

These dreams instead

Who live like a blanket

Has smothered me but still left me warm

I don’t need sympathy

Or your apologies

Why don’t you understand?

The face you see

Well it belongs to me

And I’m doing the best I can…

Just to make you smile

Just to make you smile

Again…

Faith, we’re acting on courage alone

What will they do

When that’s all through?

Dance in the dark

Sleeve pinned with a heart

Just to let you know

That we’re in pain

I don’t want sympathy

Or your apologies

Why don’t you understand?

The face you see

Well it belongs to me

And I’m doing the best I can…

Just to make you smile

Just to make you smile

Again…

Every now and then you have to see

That the wall we’ve built has landed on me

Every now and then why don’t we pretend

That things will come together in the end

Every now and then just open your eyes

Does every part of everything have to be right

Every now and then- so that after a while

I might get through and make you smile
