Crooked Heart Songtext
von That Handsome Devil

Crooked Heart Songtext

Kyle was a wild kid, used to smile big
Lit up the room every time he did
Well, that′s how the song starts
Cleo did the star charts
Dancing by the bar outside where the cars park
He said, "I'm smarted than I look
But I don′t look so smart
And I can put back together things I took apart
In the dust on the hood of your old crooked heart"

There's nothing wrong with trying
Whoever told you that was lying
She said, "I'm gonna kiss you good"
He said, "I wish you would, in fact
I′m convinced you should, I think I′d like it"

Well, I know you've had some grandioso heartache
And you guide yourself around by shapes the stars make
And it gets so cold
With no one there to hold
Obsessing over people we don′t know


Is there a way
To get away from this, we've made a mess
We could sail away or take a plane or take a train from this
Perhaps a place so far away that we could take a rest
Escape the fame as faces and
The feeling we′ve been faking it

They had some children coming, and they started buildn' somethin′
You could hear the thumpin' of construction
And the chuggin' of combustion
Connecting the pieces and scraps
Collecting the dreams and beliefs that they had from the trash
Making their contraption
Spouting steam and ash

Well, I know you′ve had some monumental heartache
And you guide yourself around by shapes the stars make
And it gets so cold
With no one there to hold
Obsessing over people we don′t know

Right there by the seaside
Just above the tree line
You could see the steam rise
Building a machine in the town where the dreams die
Covered in leaves, pine needles, and cheap wine


He said, "I'm smarter than I look
But I don′t look so smart"
That together with the things that we took apart
And on the flag on the top they drew a crooked heart

There's nothing wrong with trying
Whoever told you that was lying
See you later navigators
Of the stars and the equator

Well, I know we′ve had our grandioso heartaches
And we guide ourselves around by shapes the stars make
And it gets so cold
With no one there to hold
Obsessing over people we don't know

Well, I know we′ve had some monumental heartache
And now we guide until the round by shapes the stars make
Sometimes it still gets cold
When someone's there to hold
Obsessing over people we don't know
Obsessing over people we don′t know
Obsessing over people we don′t know
