Lyrics: Sampha Sisay
Music: Sampha Sisay
Yeah, oh
Protect this heart beat, please
Protect this heart
Protect this heart
Yeah, yeah, yeah
These days you can't remember things
'Cause life gets in the way of where you were
Maybe I should meditate
Maybe I should pray and go to church
The side effect of solar winds
Are the northern lights that we stood to observe
I just needed time to better things
I just needed space to try and heal the burns
And ooh, sending out a message
And still, there's no answer calling me
And ooh, I've been numbing all my senses
And still, it won't take this pain from me
Smiling uncontrollably
Smiling when adversity occurs
Next thing you're screaming at an open sky
Divide the clouds and disconnect from Earth
Glitches in your circuitry
Same place where poetry occurs
And ooh, sending out a message
And still, there's no answer calling me
And ooh, I've been numbing all my senses
And still, it won't take this pain from me
And still (Take this pain)
Help me (Help me)
And still (Take this pain away)
