Maggie Rogers – Little Joys lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bonfire of awe and a thirst was burning
Heart like a house, the floorboards were turning
Dark river beds where slumber was decay

[Verse 2]
The light it wrapped you in its flame
The only heir of the breaking day
Made words an arrow only you could aim

[Chorus 1]
With no injury to claim
I'm a big mess of little joys
My blue eyes are wrapped in grey
I'm a big mess

[Verse 3]
I loved you once, but none to blame
A foggy peak in the August rain
A humid heat that would never dissipate

[Verse 4]
The wind it hunted our stray calls
Combined with dragging from the hull
But that was then when you gripped tight on me

[Chorus 2]
With no injury to claim
I'm a big mess of little joys
My blue eyes are wrapped in grey
I'm a big mess of little joys

[Post-Chorus]
Lunar, solar, thought that things were over
Midnight, twilight, thought that things were alright
And don't you take my heart away
I'm a big mess of little joys

[Chorus 2]
With no injury to claim
I'm a big mess of little joys
My blue eyes are wrapped in grey
I'm a big mess of little joys

[Post-Chorus]
Lunar, solar, thought that things were over
Midnight, twilight, thought that things were alright
And don't you take my heart away
I'm a big mess of little joys
