Here is a heart
Here is a heart
I made it for you so take it
Battered and braised
Grilled and sautéed
Just how you like it
You know I live to fill you up
Blood of my blood
Dripping with love
Ill bring you the thing you need most
Silent between supplies and machine
Ill 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 youre asleep
When 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
Play Intro
Sleep like the dead through the noise in your head
My monitors click and whir and glow
Im with you all day and also we 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 youre asleep
When 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
I cant explain it but I have to try
If you evaporate the seas will rise
Til they devour the sky
Play intro once
Here is a heart
Here is a heart
I made it for you so take it
Battered and brazed
Grilled and sautéed
Just how you like it
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while youre asleep
When 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
