How to Defuse a Bomb by Hermitofthewoods Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I need someone to show me where they think I should go
Cause there is no place I would rather be
Than in your arms at home
And I feel broken
I've been roaming on these roads all day
There is nothing left and so much more for me to say
Things have changed
And I was selfish when I refused to see
All the times that I left you helpless
And dared you not to bleed
Now, I've believed in my own control
But I've allowed myself to freeze
The winter’s cold and I feel alone
Will you please come back to me?
[Chorus]
I took away your breath, I know
No rest for the beating heart I stole
I played the best way that I know
And it’s left me all alone
The price I've paid to push this stone
The paths I've laid back to your throne
Just to ask in vain to bring me home
Before everything explodes
[Verse 2]
I don’t know if I should ask you just where you have been
Cause it’s a question I can’t answer
Without smashing our dreams
But I will love you ever after no matter what that means
Even when there’s no more laughter
And sadness cracks the seams
The Age of Genocide upon us
And we've found love and shot it down
Who the hell are we to play around
With something so profound?
There are some things bigger than all of this
I hope that you witness this too someday
But for just listen, stripped of everything
While I recite your secret names
[Chorus]
I took away your breath, I know
No rest for the beating heart I stole
I played the best way that I know
And it’s left me all alone
The price I've paid to push this stone
The paths I've laid back to your throne
Just to ask in vain to bring me home
Before everything explodes
I need someone to show me where they think I should go
Cause there is no place I would rather be
Than in your arms at home
And I feel broken
I've been roaming on these roads all day
There is nothing left and so much more for me to say
Things have changed
And I was selfish when I refused to see
All the times that I left you helpless
And dared you not to bleed
Now, I've believed in my own control
But I've allowed myself to freeze
The winter’s cold and I feel alone
Will you please come back to me?
[Chorus]
I took away your breath, I know
No rest for the beating heart I stole
I played the best way that I know
And it’s left me all alone
The price I've paid to push this stone
The paths I've laid back to your throne
Just to ask in vain to bring me home
Before everything explodes
[Verse 2]
I don’t know if I should ask you just where you have been
Cause it’s a question I can’t answer
Without smashing our dreams
But I will love you ever after no matter what that means
Even when there’s no more laughter
And sadness cracks the seams

And we've found love and shot it down
Who the hell are we to play around

There are some things bigger than all of this

And it’s left me all alone
The price I've paid to push this stone
The paths I've laid back to your throne
Just to ask in vain to bring me home
Before everything explodes
