How the Heart Grows Wicked Lyrics

Even when the way ahead was calm
This hurt was turning in our blood
When it sprung awake with a hunger strong
It pulled us in like a flood

All this story we all know
How the heart grows wicked
And the mind grows slow
It's the choice we're making all alone
Until the fire's gone

So all along this blade a path will wind
Know we can try to make them straight
But you can bet there's gonna come a time
When the one you want to be just don't take

All this story we all know
How the heart grows wicked
And the mind grows slow
It's the choice we're making all alone
Until the fire's gone
