lyrics

Waited by the reservoir for you
And sent another message
I thought about the both of us
Whilst staring at the wreckage
When things aren't quite what we believe
We see just what we want to
I caught a glimpse of vacancy
So I'll stay here waiting for you

The better part of 20 years
Spent hanging in the balance
Means nothing if it disappears
So I'll wait here 'til it matters

It's safe to say - I take it back
If it really comes to that, take yours too
It's better not to beg, just do
I'm burying every artefact
The evidence of what we had
Make your move
I hate to say I'll take the blame if I have to

So, please take me at my word
It's all that I have left, somehow
And I'm hardly surprised that we turned
When did we jump the rails?
Was there some moment that I should have seen?
A point of no return along the way?
We're losing light
As it flickers and dims in our empty room

We could've beat the odds
Hell, we still can
But my back's against the wall in blue & black
If it's a game to you then I guess you've won
But you didn't have to drag me down into what I've become
You couldn't help yourself but you could've helped me
Now I feel torn between love & history
If I thought you could make a change, you would've done by now
You'll have to just accept that I have put you in the ground

It's safe to say - I take it back
If it really comes to that, take yours too
It's better not to beg, just do
I'm burying every artefact
The evidence of what we had
Make your move
I hate to say I'll take the blame if I have to

about

HEARTWORK image

HEARTWORK Bridgend, UK

Self-produced and self-debasing, Heartwork is the emotive-rock brainchild of Dan O’Dell.
Much like every guy with an acoustic guitar of the past 15 years, he likes to call the project a “band”, but really; it’s a lack of displaying any ability to relinquish any kind of control. ... more
