Damage Gets Done Songtext

von Hozier

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext von 'Damage Gets Done' von Hozier handelt von einer vergangenen Beziehung und dem Verlust der Unschuld, den...

Without shame
And two outfits then to my name
You′d end up in one when you'd stay
We had nowhere to go
And every desire for going there

I heard once
It′s the comforts that make us feel numb
We'd go out with no way to get home
And we'd sleep on somebody′s floor
Wake up feeling like a millionaire

Wish I′d known it was just our turn
(We just got by)
Being blamed for a world we had no power in
(But we tried)
You and I had nothing to show
(We didn't know...)
But the best of the world in the palm of our hand
And darling (...anything darling)

I haven′t felt it since then
I don't know how the feeling ended
But I know being reckless and young
Is not how the damage gets done

One time we would want for nothing
(One time we had it all love...)
We knew what our love was worth
(...When we had nothing)

Now we′re always missing something
I miss when we did not need much

If the car ran, the car was enough
If the sun shone on us it's a plus
And the tank was always filled up
Only enough for our getting there

That first car was like wings on an angel
(You flew away...)
Before the whole wide world got too thin
(...From me then)
I swear goodwill kept up the engine
You were steering my heart like a wheel in your hands
And darling (turn back darling)

I haven′t felt it since then
I don't know how the feeling ended but I know
Being reckless and young is not how the
Damage gets done

All I needed was someone
When the whole wide world felt young
