Here is a Heart |
Here is a Heart, here is a heart |
I made it for you so take it |
you know I live to fill you up |
Blood of my blood, dripping with love |
I bring you the thing you need most |
Silent between supplies and machines |
I hang in the corners like a ghost |
you know I live to be seen through |
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you’re asleep |
Than holding your hands inside of mine |
I want to be here and nowhere else rationing off bits of myself |
So I can crumble at your side |
Sleep like the dead through the noise in your head |
While monitors click and whirr and glow |
I’m with you all day and also would stay |
Tomorrow and onward just this close |
You know I live to keep you safe |
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you’re asleep |
Than holding your hand inside of mine |
I want to be here and nowhere else rationing off bits of myself |
So I can crumble at your side |
I can’t explain it but I have to try |
If you evaporate the seas will rise 'til they devour the sky |
Here is a heart, here is a heart |
I made it for you so take it |
Battered and braised, grilled and sauteed |
Just how you like it like it |
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you’re asleep |
Than holding your hands inside of mine |
I want to be here and nowhere else rationing off bits of myself |
So I can crumble at your side |
