Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't you miss the breathlessness
The wildness in the eye?
Come home late in the morning light
Bloodshot dreams under streetlight spells
A truth no one can tell
And I was still a secret to myself
[Chorus]
Light me up, I'm wasted in the dark
Rushmere, restless hearts in the end
Get my head out of the ground
Time don't let us down again
[Verse 2]
Take me back to empty lawns
And nowhere else to go
You say come get lost in a fairground crowd
Where no one knows your name
There's only honest mistakes
There's no price to a wasted hour
[Chorus]
Well light me up, I'm wasted in the dark
Rushmere, restless hearts in the end
And get my head out of the ground
Time don't let us down again
[Bridge]
What's lost is gone and buried deep
Take heart and let it be
Don't lie to yourself
There's madness and magic in the rain
There's beauty in the pain
Don't lie to yourself
[Chorus]
Well light me up, I'm wasted in the dark
Rushmere, restless hearts
There's something we might miss
A whole life in a glimpse
Well I'm still working it out
Time don't let us down again
'Cause I won't wait
Get my head out of the ground
Time don't let us down again
Written by: Benjamin Walter David Lovett, Dave Cobb, Edward James Milton Dwane, Greg Kurstin, Marcus Oliver Johnstone Mumford, Natalie Hemby
