Jet Black Heart

5 Seconds of Summer

Everybody's got their demons

Even wide awake or dreaming

I'm the one who ends up leaving

Make it okay

See a war, I wanna fight it

See a match, I wanna strike it

Every fire I've ignited

Faded to grey

But now that I'm broken

Now that you know it

Caught up in a moment

Can you see inside?

'Cause I've got a jet black heart

And there's a hurricane underneath it

Trying to keep us apart

I write with a poison pen

But these chemicals moving between us

Are the reason to start again

Now I'm holding on for dear life

There's no way that we could rewind

Maybe there's nothing after midnight

That could make you stay

But now that I'm broken

And now that you know it

Caught up in a moment

Can you see inside?

'Cause I've got a jet black heart

And there's a hurricane underneath it

Trying to keep us apart

I write with a poison pen

But these chemicals moving between us

Are the reason to start again

The blood in my veins

Is made up of mistakes

Let's forget who we are

And dive into the dark

As we burst into color

Returning to life

'Cause I've got a jet black heart

And there's a hurricane underneath it

Trying to keep us apart

I write with a poison pen

But these chemicals moving between us

Are the reason to start again

The blood in my veins

Is made up of mistakes (to start again)

Let's forget who we are

And dive into the dark
