Broken Bells - October lyrics

So you showed me around your town

To hell again and back

Our love has served to alienate

All the friends you depend on

I know it might seem odd

I know it might seem odd

Cause your not the only one

I remember my self as a lonely child

So I was

And you've got me wrong

You've got me wrong

(Ground your sense of worth

Til the spark of morning burns

And all those searching eyes

Could scold your tender mind)

Remember what they say

There's no shortcut to a dream

It's all blood and sweat

And life is what you manage in between

But what you don't know

Is you're too young and eager to love

Seething eyes

So you're about to get into

The ditch that you opened up

(Ground your sense of worth

Til the spark of morning burns

And all those searching eyes

Could scold your tender mind)

So the stars aligned

And leave you behind

You wanna sow it up

Here come the light

Of an autumn moon

Sister you know enough

But for now just let it go

Don't run, don't rush

Just flow

Through the give and take you had to learn

How to cross the coals and not get burned

But you're really just a little girl

Playing in the park until the sun goes down

Sometime you want to rise

One did it's our desire

No doubt you think you braided your own hair

So you're all grown up

Should you want to cross the line

Which way do you want to fly?

Pretend that love could help you find your way

But you got me wrong

Yeah you got me wrong
