Intro: 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, like it... You know I live to fill you up Blood of my blood Dripping with love I'll bring you the thing you need most Silent between supplies and machines I'll 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 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 Sleep like the dead through the noise in your head My monitors click and whir and glow I'm with you all day and I still 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 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 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 sautéed Just how you like it, like it... No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you're 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
