Lyrics
Sum of My Cares
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.
This is not the place where we have met
No, it is instead
A cooling tower in Robertson Pet
If I make you feel alive you forget
I’m the one you always thought was dead
I’m the one you always thought was dead
In a cooling tower in Robertson Pet
Do the bad dreams shake you from your bed?
I’m the fire inside your matchstick head
I’m the fire inside your matchstick head
And this is not the place where we have met
Run your fingers through the back of her hair
I’m breathing all the sum of my cares
Run your fingers through the back of her hair
I’m breathing all the sum of my cares
Easy now
(Easy now)
I want you to stay
Won’t you ask me how
(Ask me how)
We’ll get away
Easy now
(Easy now)
I want you to stay
Won’t you ask me how
(Ask me how)
We’ll get away
Easy now
(Easy now)
I Want you to stay
Won’t you ask me how
(Ask me how)
We’ll get away
We are not the that race which dares to love
Oh, God up above
Hold me by the hand in my glove
Kill the sunlight and the smell of the air
I’m breathing all the sum of my cares
I’m breathing all
I’m breathing all the sum of my cares
