Wild One

Better the love, better the lost
I believed it
Wish I'd have known, loving so hard could cut so deep
The deeper I get, the harder it is to stop the bleeding
They paint you in red, set fire to your faith
Then they leave

I heard you were a wild one, wild one
I heard that I should just keep walking
I heard I shouldn't give my heart away
I heard you were a wild one, wild one
But I had a taste of your sweet nothing
And I thought that maybe one day you would change
But the wild ones never stay
Wild ones never stay

So bitter, so sweet
These tears that you see could fill an ocean
The rumours were true, how much of a fool I could be
I spent all these years finding a way to fix what's broken
I bathe in these wounds, so drown me in blue
Set me free

I heard you were a wild one, wild one
I heard that I should just keep walking
I heard I shouldn't give my heart away
I heard you were a wild one, wild one
But I had a taste of your sweet nothing
And I thought that maybe one day you would change
But the wild ones never stay
Wild ones never stay

So why don't I listen, oh when will I learn
Fire in the dark with the bridges we burned
Cold in the ruins and covered in dust
Left to the wind
You're still holding my heart in your hands
I'm still here lost in the nights that we danced
I still believe in the things that we planned
What could have been

I heard you were a wild one, wild one
I heard that I should just keep walking
I heard I shouldn't give my heart away
Away
I heard you were a wild one, wild one
But I had a taste of your sweet nothing
I thought you'd be here when night turns into day
But the wild ones never stay
Wild ones never stay
