Year of the Brother - Heart Work Lyrics

I can't go when you want me to stay
Cause you always need something else
You want my hand, but I just can't move
You want me bad, but I've got nothing to prove
Got your music from 1985
Said it's probably from your dad's high
You know this was never my first choice
Said you'd leave me for the first voice

Now with you I can't even turn back
Now with you I'm burning like a smokestack
Would they believe if we undid the past
Never turning back until the lights all flash
Are we the same
Why won't you drink from my glass
I'm burning like a smokestack

All you can do is just never enough
You light it up, pretend to be tough
Top shelf keeps your hopes intact
But promises of love will always seem to collapse
Significance never looked so simple
Search for respect in the lions' den
Angels' hands you say pretend

Now with you I can't even turn back
Now with you I'm burning like a smokestack
Praise be
I've been remade
Never going back is just what everyone says
You saved me from something I had
Now I'm burning like a smokestack
