Bright Lights (live)
Cast your mind back to the days
When I'd pretend I was okay
I had so very much to say
About my crazy livin'
Now that I've stared into the void
So many people I've annoyed
I have to find a middle way
A better way of givin'
So I haven't given up
That all my choices, my good luck
Appear to go and get me stuck
In an open prison
Now I am tryin' to break free
Be in a state of empathy
Find the true and inner me
Eradicate the schism
No-one can take it away from me
And no-one can tear it apart
Because a heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
No-one can take it away from me
No-one can tear it apart
It may be elaborate fantasy
But it's the perfect place to start
Because a heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
When I'd pretend I was okay
I had so very much to say
About my crazy livin'
Now that I've stared into the void
So many people I've annoyed
I have to find a middle way
A better way of givin'
So I haven't given up
That all my choices, my good luck
Appear to go and get me stuck
In an open prison
Now I am tryin' to break free
Be in a state of empathy
Find the true and inner me
Eradicate the schism
No-one can take it away from me
And no-one can tear it apart
Because a heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
No-one can take it away from me
No-one can tear it apart
It may be elaborate fantasy
But it's the perfect place to start
Because a heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts
Is a heart that works
