Marcus Mumford - Prior Warning lyrics

[Marcus Mumford - Prior Warning lyrics]

Put on my running gear
I knew that this was coming, I
Picked up my phone and called my favorite
I knew I had to sit you down
But sitting you down could not prepare
You for another night like this
We made a promise that we
Always would be honest
I
Never thought that I would break again
Circled Hall and Park
Called when I came back and sat you down
For yet another night like this

I wish we could play the fools again

Each word is a cut that I see coming, I
Clench my fists as I'm inflicting them
And now I'm running out of
Parts that I can play
Not the hero, not the dodger
Not the preacher's son
You ask me why I'd wanna break the
Very thing I love the most
You knew I couldn't answer plainly
Then you knelt down on the ground like
You were drawing in the sand
And I surrender, I surrender now

I wish we could play the fools again
Go back, or just skip to the end
I wish we could play the fools again

How could you not

On the floor we painted what
You're picking up the pieces
Reminding me of love and what we
Would look like without it
It's not a problem that is yours to fix
As this pours into your life
The streetlights on and off again
Enough is enough is enough
Will it someday be enough?

I wish we could play the fools again
Go back, or just skip to the end
I wish we could play the fools again

How could you not
Blame me
How could you not
Blame me
How could you not
How could you not
