Lyrics Heartless - Jim Sturgess

Heartless

When I woke up this morning the trees didn’t work
Birdsong had turned to gunfire
And the stars were in the dirt
Snow feels like a heatwave
Sunshine feels like rain
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 uni 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
