HYRE - BLOOM

[soundcloud] [bandcamp]

LYRICS:

You chase down poetry
With shots of whiskey, and underneath
You know you’re moving your heart to bleed
You gave up honesty;
You wanted a break from reality
Are you happy with what you’ve gleaned?

CHORUS
Listening to songs that remind you of a past long gone
Just so you don’t have to think about what you’ve just lost
And it’s funny how they grow in the corner of the room when you’re looking
And it’s funny how they know you don’t wanna see them bloom so they flourish 
And it’s funny how they mark you so you wouldn’t forget them soon
And it’s funny how they twist you so you know you’ll never have it so good 

I tried to be heartless
But it was never quite enough
I guess it’s just my shitty luck
What must I sacrifice
To survive the road less travelled by
I was not made for this life

CHORUS

As you watch they grow
You give up on hope
‘Cause you know
What they’ve told you is true
Some things are just not meant for you
