"Explosions" lyrics

"Explosions"

You trembled like you'd seen a ghost
And I gave in
I lacked the things you need the most
You said, "Where have you been?"
You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide
I wonder why
I remind you of the days you poured your heart into
But you never tried

I've fallen from grace
Took a blow to my face
I've loved and I've lost
I've loved and I've lost

Explosions
On the day you wake up needing somebody
And you've learned
It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same
It will never be the same

You left my soul bleeding in the dark
So you could be king, ah
The rules you set are still untold to me
And I've lost my faith in everything

The nights you could cope
Your intentions were gold
But the mountains will shake
I need to know I can still make

Explosions
On the day you wake up needing somebody
And you've learned
It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same

And as the floods move in
And your body starts to sink
I was the last thing on your mind
I know you better than you think
'Cause it's simple, darling
I gave you a warning
Now everything you own
Is falling from the sky in pieces
So watch them fall with you
In slow motion
I pray that you'll find peace of mind
And I'll find you another time
I'll love you another time

Explosions
On the day you wake up needing somebody
And you've learned
It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same
