Take This Lonely Heart
Nothing But Thieves
[Verse 1]
I feel younger everyday
The more I grow, the less I seem to know
I've been trying to keep my head straight
Where I roam, it never feels like home
You feel the weight of the world coming down on your head
There's people looking at you, and now they're pulling you back
I've got a circle of ink, it's in the palm of my hand
And I think it will be there for good

[Pre-Chorus]
We take a piece of ourselves, we draw a line in the sand
We say "don't cross this, or else," and then we put up a flag
Oh, how we worship the things that we don't quite understand
Oh, it's more dangerous than you know

[Chorus]
I've got a message that you can't ignore
Maybe I'm just not the man I was before
Take this from me, take this lonely heart
'Cause I, 'cause I don't need it no more
I've got a hunger you will never taste
Craving a desire that won't go to waste
Take this from me, take this lonely heart
And I, I'm gonna make it my own
[Verse 2]
Someone took my ego away
Hey, so long, won't miss it now, it's gone
Now my youth is being replaced
So, good night, it's gonna be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause now I drink the good wine and now I get out of bed
And now I let myself love and I'm not scared of the end
I take it all on the chin and I would do it again
Because maybe it's time for a change
I've got a pain in my neck, because I keep looking up
I'm searching what's coming next, but it won't come from above
And there's a hole in my chest, like there's a hole in the sun
So tell me, what's coming next? I'm searching, what's coming next?
I've got a pain in my neck, because I keep looking up
I'm searching what's coming next, but it won't come from above
And there's a hole in my chest and I'll make it my own

[Chorus]
I've got a message that you can't ignore
Maybe I'm just not the man I was before
Take this from me, take this lonely heart
'Cause I, 'cause I don't need it no more
I've got a hunger you will never taste
Craving a desire that won't go to waste
Take this from me, take this lonely heart
And I, I'm gonna make it my own
[Outro]
It's a chance that you take, that you lose who you have been
When you break all the chains that you feel comfortable in
It's a chance that I take, so my hunger can be free
In the end, in the end, in the end, in the end
