Radney Foster Angry Heart lyrics

I held on to the hurt, wrestled it to the ground
Fought it like Heaven and Hell and I lost every round
There wasn't anybody I would trust
So long since I felt love, I'd forgotten what it was

Baby 'til you got a hold of my angry heart
I saw the truth when you led my way out of the dark
I was draggin' round these chains like some ghost in the hall
Swearing at the pain and empty from it all
Until you got a hold of my angry heart

Living in the past, locked up with my rage
I built that prison myself, it's such a lonely cage
I started believing I would never heal
Your love changed my life when I thought my fate was sealed

Baby, 'til you got a hold of my angry heart
I saw the truth when you led my way out of the dark

I was draggin' round these chains like some ghost in the hall
Swearing at the pain and empty from it all
Until you got a hold of my angry heart

I thought, I would disappear without a trace
Until your love washed each teardrop from my face

Baby, you got a hold of my angry heart
I saw the truth, you led my way out of the dark
I was draggin' round these chains like some ghost in the hall
Swearing at the pain and empty from it all
Until you got a hold of my angry heart

Baby, you got a hold of my angry heart
