Lyrics

Kept

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.

I watched the flames slow and strange

Make the walls fill my eyes

I heard your voice through the noise

I was cold and it was warm inside

And i should have kept my head

I should have kept my arms inside

I believe it now

I should have kept my head

I should have kept my heart, my heart

Shooting stars, falling leaves

The more things change, the more i sleep

I took her heart, i licked her wounds

And when morning came, it felt like truth

And i should have kept my hands

I should have kept my arms inside

I believe you now

I should have kept my head

I should have kept my heart, my heart

I'm on my knees

And i should have kept my hands

I should have kept my arms inside

Yeah i believe you now

I should have kept my head

I should have kept my heart, my heart
