My Heart Was Angled Lyrics - Singles - Land Lovers

I am bound to love you until the end of recorded time 

Have the legislators lost their collective minds? 

It's late in the evening 

Like Clapton before me: 

I'm "Slow Hand"; 

I've taken to wearing the thin beard of a creep 

For a while I thought my figures were Greek 

When you told me they were pleasingly oblique 

It was a lovely thing to hear 

In the context of an advanced hour 

My heart was angled 

And reeled in terrifyingly 

Oh my heart was angled, angled oh 

And so we are contracted to each other indefinitely 

Do the common criminals watch interestedly? 

Or are they in mourning? 

For their younger selves, de-lined and flowering 

There are generations stricken on the grass 

Playing dead for the slowest kid in the class 

They assured her she was middlingly fast 

It was the decent thing to do 

Too often, honesty is a front for cruelty 

My heart was angled 

And reeled in terrifyingly 

Oh my heart was angled, angled oh
