Eat Your Young - Hozier

When you were young and on your own How did it feel to be alone? I was always thinking of games that I was playing Trying to make the best of my time But only love can break your heart Try to be sure right from the start Yes, only love can break your heart What if your world should fall apart? I have a friend I've never seen He hides his head inside a dream Someone should call him and see if he can come out Try to lose the down that he's found But only love can break your heart Try to be sure right from the start Yes, only love can break your heart What if your world should fall apart? I have a friend I've never seen He hides his head inside a dream Yes, only love can break your heart Yes, only love can break your heart Yes, only love can break your heart Yes, only love can break your heart

Well, he said to me, "Child, I'm afraid for your soul These things that you're after, they can't be controlled And this beast that you're after will eat you alive And spit out your bones" She'll string you along, she'll sell you a lie There's nothing but pain on the edge of a knife There is no courage in flirting with fear to prove you're alive I've seen the true fates of the things you call life The song and the siren that holds your desire Death, she is cunning and clever as hell And she'll eat you alive She'll eat you alive

Sounds so great, everything you're saying Do lies out loud change anything? Go get mad Have a child's tantrum 'Til everyone knows how wronged you've been Look around, that's not me Not one shred of who I'll be You don't know what I do The one way getting out is through Damn, there's no practical advantage To chase that love from people hurting you See all kinds once you think they need it The ones who'll take it, then the ones who know the truth Look around, that's not me Not one shred of who I'll be You don't know what I do The one way getting out is through Slow things down, baby check your motives You sleep at night and stand up straight Keep in mind, there's a big, big difference To letting go and running away Look around, that's not me Not one shred of who I'll be You don't know what I do The one way getting out is through

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
