Heart Attack Songtext

I've been hit this hard
and it won't be the last
that's for sure
well I'm living proof
no matter how hard you try
you can't get it perfect
the first time

so take two, take three
it's a crash of many casualties
take nine, take ten
I just want this heart attack to end

well I ponder the moment
and I start to cry
I ignore my own feelings
and I don't know why
if you'll take my past, you might understand
and I'll take you aside
and I'll take your hand
but you do not blame me
for what I didn't request
I didn't ask for control
I didn't ask for the rest
I told you I loved you
but is that what you heard?
you saw contrived escape
and empty words

so take two, take three
what you get is what you see
take nine, take ten
I just want this heart attack to end

well I am thinking
in straight lines
and I am walking
with blinders on my eyes
and I am talking
in circles
oh I should have long ago
overcome these obstacles
I should have

so two doves lying dead
side by side on the cement
two doves didn't know what hit'em
as they flew into their reflections
and there are many complications
but only one life
still one of these days I'm bound to get it right
get it right

so take two, take three
no one said it would be easy
take nine, take ten
I just want this heart attack to end
