Bad Heart - Overgrow

I’m reminded each day

The tightness in my chest just won’t go away

‘Cause the devil in my ribcage has been staying at bay

But he won’t go away

So I’ll just wait

And I keep these thoughts locked away

What took you from us will come for me someday

But dwelling just keeps me awake

So bury my head in the sand

Closer to the grave

So tell me there will be a sign before I go

Say that I’m okay, say that you know

And tell me I’ll live forever if I try

Just say anything that gets me by

I’m reminded in ways

Like when I bleed it spells your name

Like the way that it keeps me counting the days 'til it takes me away

And I’ll have nothing left to say

But, «Will I meet you at those gates?»

So tell me there will be a sign before I go

Say that I’m okay, say that you know

And tell me I’ll live forever if I try

Just say anything that gets me by

Is there a bad heart in me?

We pass it down through the family tree

Is there a bad heart in me?

Was it the thing that set you free?

So tell me there will be a sign before I go

Say that I’m okay, say that you know

And tell me I’ll live forever if I try

Just say anything that gets me by
