From The Bottom Of My Heart Lyrics - Wallflowers Fire on the porch on a summer's night All of my things are there inside Black smoke rise up, burn on burn higher I smell leaves and burning tires Dogs in the meadows barking wild Blackbird rise up, tell me what you have done I'm not drunk and I'm not sad There's nothing inside that I want back Let me touch your lips, let me see where you're at Do you wonder how I am tonight Then don't lose time looking in my eyes Not every tear means you're gonna cry From the bottom of my heart Comes a cold dark feeling There is nothing but dust in the layers I'm peeling From the bottom of my heart Beats a rattling drum comming up from the depths Into the rays of the sun Now, under crushing skies of grays Paralyzed with phantom pains Before this room became just a place Where I just sleep through endless days Spinning webs and carving names Where thoughts break up, exploding in space But I once crossed a quarter mile Through black pools of razor wires And cut through steel with the edge of a file While singing rhapsodies in stride Hellbent and dignified But my time has come Who you fooling and why? From the bottom of my heart Comes a cold dark feeling There is eminent death to the promise I'm keeping From the bottom of my heart Comes an army of one
