Lovers - My Heart Never Sleeps lyrics

I had a passion for strangers
And prescription pain killers
Now, is that so bad?
I do what I do but I don't do what you did

We got a wicked ignition and
The devil makes three
I'm just trying to rev up my engine
Are you trying to punish me?

I was born to a little dead angel
She dressed my wounds in tape and paper
She said, "does it still hurt real bad?"
I am where i am and you're where you're at
It's like the search that's on inside of me
And one day'll sail past my eyes
You can see the flicker of something
I've been trying to find
We weren't here at the same time
She was leaving just as i arrived
She touched my hand as she went past
And said, "your heart is all you have
And if asking for directions
Proves that you are lost
Well, how else you ever gonna
How you gonna get where you want?" come on

I look at all the things I purchased
When i was feeling worthless
But the stores became cages
Holding blank faces and time wasted

And time is passing time is dying
Time is history and in all this time
The clocks' hands never once
Reached out for me

You can tell now that I'm tired
Oh, it's exhausting to be so
Diligent in my vigilance
To have a heart that never sleeps

So this lullaby never be complete
Or I might close my eyes to
Dream of the idleness of being
Just like a soldier up all
Hours waiting for the enemy
I'm always watching, always guarded
Oh, my heart never sleeps
My heart never sleeps
My heart never, my heart never
My heart never sleeps
