V1 You sit alone outside and wonder On a swing he built when you were younger (Those were the days)
You reminisce about the past Try to keep him close (Why’d they take him away?)
Pre Chorus You feel the bombs dropping on your heart Like the day you heard the news Ripped apart, torn in two You can’t believe this happened to you
Chorus Is there a Brightside? I want to know Drawing blood, marking fields, breaking happy homes Killing for power, as we sell our souls Is there a Brightside? I want to know
V2 Light a candle put on a face Another day, it’s hard to hide the pain (Feeling the distance)
Still make dinner for two Pretend he’s coming home to see you (You’re all alone)
Pre Chorus You feel the bombs dropping on your heart Like the day you heard the news Ripped apart, torn in two You can’t believe this happened to you
BRIDGE You’ve been gone for so long But I will carry you on…
