Heartless Lyrics – Jim Sturgess

Heartless Text

---

When I woke up this morning the trees didn’t work
bird song had turned to gunfire and the stars were in the dirt
The snow feels like a heatwave,
The sunshine feels like rain.
If a feather touches my skin, it causes me pain

Come back, come back
And make the world work again.
Come back and put an end to all this mess,
Come back and prove the world’s not heartless.
Come back and prove the world’s not heartless.

The air is thick as tar and my skin is bruised and stung
I try to talk but no one understands my tongue
With every passing second,
I age a million years
When I fall and graze my knees
The universe cheers

Come back, come back,
And make the world work again.
Come back and put an end to all this mess,
Come back and prove the world’s not heartless.
Come back and prove the world’s not heartless.

When i call your name out
it turns to shrapnel in my mouth
And the last time I looked up the north star was south.

Come back, come back,
And make the world work again.
Come back and put an end to all this mess,
Come back and prove the world’s not heartless.
Come back and prove the world’s not heartless.

Heartless.... Heartless....Heartless.... Heartless....
