Lyrics The Common Linnets

The Common Linnets

Proud

Where can I go to heal the heartache

Where can I go to mend my mistakes

Oh my god, what are we fighting for

A house made of stone on a floor of sand

Swallows you up like you don't stand a chance

Are architects so wrong to be so sure

You set fires in the hearts of all of us

Fires you started just because you needed to be proud

Proud

Is there a place to soothe the sadness

Where I'm the kind of all this madness

Reality turns into fairytale

Where forgiveness falls right from the sky

And bitterness won't waste our time

Where love and good intentions never fail

You set fires in the hearts of all of us

Fires you started just because you needed to be proud

Proud

You set fires in the hearts of all of us

Fires you started just because you needed to be proud

Proud
