Swollen Hearts Lyrics

Hold me close and don't let go

I'm afraid I'll never see you again
Please forgive my wounded emotion
I'm still learning this process
I said I was perfect
A beautiful failure

Motivated mind
With a strong man's back
So please forgive the things that I said
Please forgive the things that I did
A big heart with a sharp tongue
Hold me close, don't let go

I'll do better in another life
You'll be the river and I'll be the stone
So that you may smooth me over and turn me into a beautiful shape
No cracks or rough edges
I took the right path with a crooked step
I smiled when I should have cried

Hold me close
Don't let go
I'd be weak if it weren't for my bones

Hold me close
Motivated mind
With a strong man's back
So please forgive the things that I've said
Please forgive the things that I did
A big heart with a sharp tongue
Hold me close
Don't let go
