Lyrics: We were staring down disaster That night we almost called it quits You said that you were changing chapters I said this can’t be where it ends Not even poetry can fix this Right now we both need more than words If we give up we’re gonna miss this Can we remember who we were Standing on St Brigid’s road Where we finally let it go We held a funeral for heartache We buried trouble in the grass We didn’t bother buying roses Cause we ain’t going back I don’t know nothing bout tomorrow I barely know about today We set a fire to our sorrow And watch the hurt go up in flames Grief is such a solid promise Joy just leaves you in the rain Sadness waits down in the lobby Solace stood you up again I’m thankful for the darkness Every thing it let me see So much beauty in the storm Like how you turned to me If I’m honest you’re the reason That the light gets in at all You’re the song that breaks the silence You’re the smile at curtain call I’m scared of who I’d be without you Much more than you know If I seem strong it’s just a show Standing on St Brigid’s road Where we finally let it go We held a funeral for heartache We buried trouble in the grass We didn’t bother buying roses Cause we ain’t going back I don’t know nothing bout tomorrow I barely know about today We set a fire to our sorrow And watch the hurt go up in flames Oh no, no, we ain’t ever going back Oh no, no, we ain’t ever going back We held a funeral for heartache We buried trouble in the grass We didn’t bother buying roses Cause we ain’t going back I don’t know nothing bout tomorrow I barely know about today We set a fire to our sorrow And watch the hurt go up in flames
