Lyrics

Grade 8

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

My mind is a warrior

My heart is a foreigner

My eyes are the color of red like a sunset

I'll never keep it bottled up

And left to the hands of the coroner

Be a true heart not a follower, we're not done yet

And I see it in your movements tonight

If we should ever do this right

I'm never gonna let you down

Oh, I'll never let you down

Now keep it on the down low

And I'll keep you around so I'll know

That I'll never let you down

I'll never let you down

You're strumming on my heart strings

Like you were a grade 8

But I've never felt this way

I'll pick your feet up off of the ground

And never ever let you down

Now you're strumming on my heart strings

Like you were a grade 8

But I've never felt this way

I'll pick your feet up off of the ground

And never ever let you down, now

My eyes are a river filler

This drink is a liver killer

My chest is a pillow for your weary head to lay to rest again

Your body is my ballpoint pen

And your mind is my new best friend

Your eyes are the mirror to take me to the edge again

Now, I see it in your movements tonight

If we should ever do this right

I'm never gonna let you down

Oh, I'll never let you down

Now keep it on the down low

And I'll keep you around so I'll know

That I'll never let you down

I'll never let you down

You're strumming on my heart strings

Like you were a grade 8

But I've never felt this way

I'll pick your feet up off of the ground

And never ever let you down

You're strumming on my heart strings

Like you were a grade 8

But I've never felt this way

I'll pick your feet up off of the ground

And never ever let you down

Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now

And I'll never let you down

Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now

And I'll never let you down

Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now

And I'll never let you down

Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now

And I'll never let you down

You're strumming on my heart strings

Like you were a grade 8

But I've never felt this way

I'll pick your feet up off of the ground

And never ever let you down

You're strumming on my heart strings

Like you were a grade 8

But I've never felt this way

I'll pick your feet up off of the ground

And never ever let you down
