Lyrics The Pains of Being Pure At Heart

The Pains of Being Pure At Heart

Belong

What to do, nothing new

We tried each other, let's try another

When you came through the door,

I felt everything and nothing that I had before

Tell yourself it's not yourself

But no one else can make me know there's no one else

When you came through the door,

I was sure you never even felt the floor

I know it is wrong, but we just don't belong

In their eyes, in the sun

No we just don't belong

Change your mind and stop the time

That comes between us, that bends beneath us

If you're mine, I don't mind

We tried another, let's try each other

I know it is wrong, but we just don't belong

In their eyes, in the sun

No we just don't belong

In hospitals, in shopping malls

With heavy heads and locker walls

An empty street at 3 a.m.,

You told me you're not one of them

We took a vow to never sleep

While there was still air left to breathe

And you're the same, so slightly strange

Among the fakes you knew the pains.
