Track 08 of "Somewhere You'd Rather Be" by Cody J. Martin
lyrics
Love I've been
Returned to rainbows end
Reduced to shreds by all your glass spread out on the wind
Can't pretend
That this heart I have
This locket 'round my neck
Wasn't stole from you as I flew above your nest
And you ask: "Could all that you need be found inside my heart?"
But you know the answer to that
And I do believe that now there's no turning back
For all that I need is all I can see when I look at you
And love it seems
You'll end my misery
Or let me slowly drift towards that long eternal stream
But don't you weep
Like young hunters do
When their prey lays strewn
On lips of love while from your hips you pull your pistol to shoot
I'm asking you: "Could all that you need be found inside my heart?" And you know the answer is true
Now there's nowhere left to go and one thing to do
For all that I need is all I can see when I look at you
When I look at you I hear the moanin' of the train
And you whisper dear, you'll be delivered from your pain
Then you close your eyes and aim to fire at me
As I'm chained to the corners of your circus ring
With this locket made of steel kept so well concealed
No need to run
From good ends of the gun
For what you need, babe it ain't always what you want
And now you've come
To be the bullets grave
With every ricochet
And glass on the wind it blows only when a stolen heart breaks
When a stolen heart breaks
