Hand me your hand let me look in your eyes
as my last chance to feel human begins to vaporize
maybe its the heat in here maybe its the pressure
you ought to head for the exits the sooner the better
I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam
And no in her right mind would make my home her home
My heart is an autoclave
My heart is an autoclave
When I try to open up to you I get completely lost
Houses swallowed by the earth windows thick with frost
And I reach deep down within but the pathways twist and turn
And theres no light anywhere and nothing left to burn
And I am this great unstable mass of blood and foam
And no emotion thats worth having can call my heart its home
My hearts an autoclave
My hearts an autoclave
I dream't that I was perched atop a throne of human skulls
On a cliff above the ocean howling wind and shrieking seagulls
And the dream went on forever one single static frame
Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name
I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam
And no in her right mind would make her home my home
My heart is an autoclave
My heart is an autoclave
