A Little Piece of Heaven - whenyoung

Lyrics:
The streets are pebble-dashed mirrors
Know them like the back of my hand
Back then when they made a great sound

The noises of joy and then
The shrieks and sobs of children at war
The freedom never gave up
And if you had the face of a street angel

You could have your first cigarette and drink and kiss in peace
And all of these things that I was so hasty to do

I’d rather have skipped it
And not have to tend to the stinging
Tend to the bite to my mind
Time after time
Bandaged back up
And prepared for a fight

I don’t wanna spoil it
And be resentful
But I have had to make a few changes
Day to day to day

And there’s no question
I’ve learnt my lesson
All that you need is a little piece of heaven

And there’s no question
I’ve learnt my lesson
All that you need is a little piece of heaven

When I was younger on Saturday night
We’d go to town
We’d go to my Grandmother’s house
In front of a blazing hot fire
She’d cut into pieces the Magnum we’d brought

Giving me some, my sister some
All that you need is A Piece of Heaven


I know that I’ve been frozen
But I’ve had some time to thaw out
And not everything’s worthy of my woes

Better put your best self forward
Look at all of the days ahead
And I better start here right now
Days of grace are coming
What did I do to deserve this?

Time to prove

Time to move away from old narratives
What did I do to deserve this?

Time to prove
Time to move away from old narratives
