Heatstroke-Brick&Mortar
My father was a story
My mother was afraid
They didn't mean to make me
But I got made anyway
Since I was a young child
Wa-oh
I much preferred the rain
Wa-oh
They asked me are you happy
Wa-oh
I said I can't explain
Wa-oh
And I say heatstroke yellow maybe strawberry blue
The strongest thing I ever felt was feelings for you
So try to look me in the eye
A difficult goodbye
To all the things we hide ah-oh
I live my life upon a crystal shield
It's unbelievable but I keep believing
I'll never give up 'til the day I die
I'll never give up till the day I die I say
Every single time they come back home from the road
I say tell me where you've been to
Tell me what you've gone for
They tell me on the road you end up losing you soul
I'm thinking when they made me they forgot one of those
I say rich kids singing of the silver spoon blues
They tell me I can't get in
'cause there's just no more room
But they lied
They looked me in the eye
Scared of what they'd find
Underneath my side ah-oh
And I hope you're right so I can see the sunshine
And I hope you're right 'cause I don't like this way
And I hope you're right so I can change the future
'Cause I was only hiding in the rain wa-oh
Since I was a young child
I've seen a lot of rain
You asked me are you happy
I said I can't explain
I told you I'm a monster wa-oh
And I can't seem to feel wa-oh
You asked me are you happy wa-oh
Said no but I am real
And I say heatstroke yellow maybe strawberry blue
The strongest thing I ever felt was feelings for you
So try to look me in the eye
A difficult goodbye
To all the things we hide ah-oh
Rich kid singing of the silver spoon blues
They tell you you can't get in
'cause there's just no more room
But they lie
They look you in the eye
Scared of what they'd find
Underneath your side
