[Verse 1]
Thought I found the real me when I met you
A different sky above me out of the blue

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought you were just paintin'
New pictures on my walls
With every stroke you tainted
My heart after the fall

[Chorus]
I got a tainted heart
I got a tainted heart

[Verse 2]
Both our hearts are travelin' with a strong mind
Heavy road companions, just not the same kind

[Pre-Chorus]
When I was fully in it
You were halfway out
Your concept of forever
Don't know what that's about

[Chorus]
I got a tainted heart
I got a tainted heart
[Bridge]
Only passin' through
Always somеwhere new that's callin' you
Somеthin' I could never do
Without a place to come back to
I guess I found the real me
And I know it's true
Though all our dreams have faded
I still think of you from time to time

[Chorus]
With a tainted heart
I got a tainted heart
A tainted heart
I got a tainted heart
