Hawksley Workman - Around Here Lyrics




Around here
We name the strays
We let them into our hearts
Give them a place to stay

Like jesus did
Or so we read
You gotta love everyone
Till you're dead

And it's what I've been telling you
All along
I want you know
I need you to know

And I know we're both tired of making mistakes
And falling has become our middle name
I know we just want to be rescued some days
We don't want to become some kind of broken cliche

Around here
We keep on messing up
We drag our egos around
In a beggar's cup

Cuz we've all been taught
From such an early age
To build a wall around our hearts
So that thing will never break

And I know we're both tired of making mistakes
And disaster has become our middle name
I know we just want to be resting some days
With the stolen eyes of love
That we carefully hide away

I remember what song was playing that day on the radio
As two speeding cars slow motion collide
We promised ourselves we'd never go silent again
We laid there for hours together and cried

And I know we're both tired of making mistakes
And disaster has become our middle name
I know we just want to be rescued some days
With the stolen eyes of love
That we carefully hide away
