Dead Hearts

Dead Heart by Stars


“Tell me everything that happened

Tell me everything you saw

They had lights inside their eyes

They had lights inside their eyes


Did you see the closing window?

Did you hear the slamming door?

They moved forward, my heart died

They moved forward, my heart died


Please, please tell me what they look like

Did they seem afraid of you?

They were kids that I once knew

They were kids that I once knew


[Chorus]

I could say it, but you won’t believe me

You say you do, but you don’t deceive me

It’s hard to know they’re out there

It’s hard to know that you still care

I could say it but you wont believe me

You say you do but you don’t deceive me

Dead hearts are everywhere

Dead hearts are everywhere


Did you touch them, did you hold them?

Did they follow you to town?

They make me feel I’m falling down

They make me feel I’m falling down


Was there one you saw too clearly?

Did they seem too real to you?

They were kids that I once knew

They were kids that I once knew


[Chorus x2]


They were kids that I once knew

They were kids that I once knew

Now they’re all dead hearts to you

Now they’re all dead hearts to you


They were kids that I once knew

They were kids that I once knew

Now they’re all dead hearts to you”


Now my heart is dead for you

Years and Years

This is where I said

I wanted to be when I grow up.
I’ll sit down and cry and I’ll
never leave when I must leave.

The place was as stake but
it felt like home and
it was all I ever
wanted to be.


The beasts of time has pounded
howled, shrieked and yelled.
Get out, it said
Get out and never come back.
Get out because we don’t want you
Get out because I am scared
of your power to
overthrow me.


The day I will leave,
I will carry a sling bag packed with
all the childish things that I brought 
the first time I came.


I will leave, the way I came.
