The Cure

London knows me in a way that nowhere else does

Sees me at my strongest, and when I’m lost

London shows me who I am and who I once was

When my head and heart both have their wires crossed

London, hold me as I’m coming down from this high

He’s all I’ve ever known, but then again I won’t deny that

This has heralded a shift within me during this time

What I have come to find is that no matter what I might have to leave behind

There’s growth in falling apart, there’s laughter between the darker moments, romance in the loneliness

There’s hope in this broken heart, dancing amidst the disaster of it all

Crumbling then crawling back to who I was before

I’m crying out for the cure

I awake each day to feel the weight of the change

Heavy on my chest, and try to embrace it

As I make my way toward the underground train

Swear I see his face amongst all these strangers

Love is a ruthless thing, but it won’t dare to render me unless

Bruises show resilience, let brilliance override and agony subside

There’s growth in falling apart, there’s laughter between the darker moments, romance in the loneliness

There’s hope in this broken heart, dancing amidst the disaster of it all

Crumbling then crawling back to who I was before

I’m crying out for the cure

Maybe I’m okay without your advice

Guess that our old ways are no longer right

I’m missing you like mad, no I don’t need to think twice

But there’s more to this limited life than hoping you’ll leave on the light

There’s growth in falling apart, there’s laughter between the darker moments, romance in the loneliness

There’s hope in this broken heart, dancing amidst the disaster of it all

Crumbling then crawling back to who I was before

I’m crying out for the cure
