Wholehearted Mess
Bear in Heaven Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's walk down the highway
The exit isn't too far
No don't be upset

We'll make it down to that tree
We'll lay back in the shaded green grass
We'll listen to the pond
We'll think of all the fun we will have in our lives now

Come on please
I know I've lied before
But this time I mean it
This time I mean it
When will someone care?

Dig out (x 11)

Hey girl, don't turn the knife into my heart
Building a park of love that runs so far

Go on and dream of the time we all ran
That all the grass that went all down

Someone embedded the knife who came
Smoke detectors will slowly ring

Go on and dream of the time we all ran
When I like grass became alive

You are the product of the great ring up
I was just managed from your wayward son

Go on and change the time we all ran
And like the girls you'll be alright

And don't forget to forget my name
This is the last song you'll want to sing

Just forget me
You don't know me
Just forget me
You don't know me
Just forget me
You don't know me
Just forget me...
