(Open Up Your) Filthy Heart (To Me) |
High above through veils of cloud I look on you again |
You’re beautiful as always in this light |
About you shame and ignorance are clinging like a shroud |
But I can’t wait to be with you tonight |
No angels walk beside you now |
No heroes hold your hands |
Your heart was broken but your mind’s still free |
And down below me you are waiting smiling like a ghost |
Come open up your filthy heart to me |
Into your arms so long ago in innocence and fear |
I asked you for your dreams to make me wise |
Like a priestess like a whore you took me by the hand |
And showed me all your mysteries and lies |
But everywhere I go there still are echoes of you now |
Your golden streets that no one ever sees |
And all I ask is one last time |
Before my time has passed |
Come open up your filthy heart to me |
Mad dogs and millionaires have breathed upon your eyes |
Their rituals are sordid and so bland |
They whisper their banalaties |
They fawn and patronise |
How little all your suitors understand |
They try to dress you up like someone younger and more free |
Ridiculous they try to make you seem |
When what you are is perfect and I need no more than this |
Come open up your filthy heart to me |
Come open up your filthy heart to me |
