Sam Phillips - Slapstick Heart lyrics

rate me

Painted smile but I don't feel the part

In dream I hold your kinfe over my heart

The edge is higher the closer I get

When I jump you move the net

I keep falling for this slapstick heart

Hanging on your words

I thought I'd known

The rope is cut and I'm falling on my own

The comedy in the tragic disbelief

Of only human

To make you laugh is there nothing I won't do

Any pain I won't go through

Lost my balance fell like rain

I half expected you to do the same

But you cried an ocean and broke my fall

That's when I knew I couldn't swim at all
