《Not The Heartless Kind》歌词

[00:00:00] Not The Heartless Kind - Songs For Bright Street

[00:00:09] What if I stacked the cards

[00:00:12] Hid the ace next to my heart

[00:00:14] Playing out the game with a steady-handed art

[00:00:18] What if I left the closet open

[00:00:22] Skeletons and all

[00:00:24] Invited in the press

[00:00:26] Leaving you to take the fall

[00:00:33] What if I scratched below the surface

[00:00:35] Enough to open up the bricks

[00:00:38] Decades of desertion too eroded for a fix

[00:00:42] What if I did all the things

[00:00:45] I swore I'd never do

[00:00:47] Just to get me off the hook

[00:00:49] And leave the blame with you

[00:00:56] I built this house with my own hands

[00:01:01] I can tear it down crush

[00:01:03] These bricks to sand

[00:01:06] You sat there on the sofa

[00:01:08] As the roof fell from the sky

[00:01:15] I could leave you in the rubble

[00:01:20] But I'm not the Heartless Kind

[00:01:26] What if I broke all of the mirrors

[00:01:29] Just to hide my fears

[00:01:31] Used the broken glass

[00:01:32] To wipe away my tears

[00:01:35] Then I'd leave you with the furniture

[00:01:38] The photos in the frames

[00:01:40] All I'd take in my bag is this mess that I made

[00:01:47] I built this house with my own hands

[00:01:51] I can tear it down crush these bricks to sand

[00:01:56] You sat there on the sofa

[00:01:59] As the roof fell from the sky

[00:02:06] I could leave you in the rubble but

[00:02:11] I'm not the Heartless Kind

[00:02:30] So I'll prop up the destruction

[00:02:33] Tidy up before I go

[00:02:35] Put away the cards but leave an ace in the hole

[00:02:40] I will pack up all the memories

[00:02:43] The ones faded and blue

[00:02:45] Seal them in the boxes that

[00:02:47] I moved in here with you

[00:02:49] And maybe we'll unpack them

[00:02:52] Put things back in their place

[00:02:54] When broken love is mended

[00:02:56] By a whole lot of grace

[00:02:59] I built this house with my own hands

[00:03:03] I can tear it down crush these bricks to sand

[00:03:08] You sat there on the sofa

[00:03:10] As the roof fell from the sky

[00:03:17] I could leave you in the rubble

[00:03:29] But I'm not the Heartless Kind
