English Blood // American Heartache

[Intro]
English blood for this American heart-ache
American heartache

[Verse 1]
I picked the right place at the wrong time
I made a promise it was gonna be fine
I’ve got a laundry list of all these famous lies
That I tell myself just so I can get by
I wrote a record just to make the the sun shine
Whatever helps me helps you sleep every night away

[Chorus]
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache
Sending post cards home from all my “last mistakes”
Maybе I lost myself somewherе along the way
If I’m beyond repair, that’s just a part of me

[Post-Chorus]
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache

[Verse 2]
I get scared when I get too high
A little nervous when I’m sad and can’t cry
I think I’m broken, but I don’t know why
Is my nose bleeding?
I wanna scream til my lungs don’t work
I wanna see you in my old t-shirt
I wanna fuck ‘til the pain don’t hurt-
“It’s temporary” (“Uh, which part?”)

[Chorus]
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache
Sending post cards home from all my “last mistakes”
Maybe I lost myself somewhere along the way
If I’m beyond repair, that’s just a part of me

[Bridge]
There’s no changing who I was
And you know exactly where I’ve been
But I know who I am
And who I am is good enough for me
There’s no changing who I was
And you know exactly where I’ve been
But I know who I am
And who I am is good enough for me
English blood for this American heart-ache

[Chorus]
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache
Sending postcards home from all my “last mistakes”
Maybe I’ll find myself somewhere along the way
I know, it’s part of me

[Post-Chorus]
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache
Don’t blame my English blood for this American heart-ache
