Our Hearts Try Too Hard

from Don't Know How Else To Describe It by Loa & Koan

/

lyrics

ours were not the first hearts
that tried to beat in this apartment
the walls and the parquet foor has started
to buckle under the weight of a century's worth
of cries and laughter

In nineteen hundred and eleven
the two rooms and a kitchen appeared like heaven
to a family of seven
two and a half world wars between them
and the two of us I think to myself when

we hide in eachothers arms
from thoughts that the night froze although our bed is warm
oh, our hearts try too hard
and we keep forgetting
that life is for the ones who does not ask so many questions

and despite our fancy bedsheets
now you wriggle in your sleep from bad dreams
each little thing I can save you from
but only for as long
you're so close to me
that we share the same heartbeats
