Heart

Have a heart for the human heart

Fragile and magnificent, an organ of significance

Have a heart for the human heart

A red mist in transit, beyond this black Atlantic

Swelling on a wave, she feels just like a blanket

Spread all over me, spread all over you

Feel the weight of the human heart

Eleven ounces of burden for all that is uncertain

For so many different reasons it feels like the killing season

For so many different reasons it feels like the killing season

Feel the base of the human heart

Organically eroding, love and hate starts exploding

In the place we call reality, there's too much similarity

There's too much speed and too much waste

Pissing holes just like a cavity

Be afraid of the human heart

Slavishly devoted, illusions promised and promoted

The prophecies are bloated, she sinks but we float in

Be ashamed of the human heart

This vital organ we trust in is weak and then corrupted

By the decadence we've controlled, lavishly constructed

Devouring ourselves like a feast at an orgy

All the shiny things, smells like purgatory

Sense the pain of the human heart

Oh, mercy, mercy, mercy, Cupid's arrows almost killed me

I'm looking for love, please don't send me to God

I want something visceral, I'm not looking for a miracle

Feel the strain on the human heart

A love struck vessel hauling embryonic cargo

Ooh, the distance is farther

Ooh, so I may lose track of my mystical radar

When the heart starts crying over loves that we thought

Loves that we thought weren't dying

Wipe the stain from the human heart

Clean earth, clean water, why blame the wolf for the slaughter?

Wipe the stain from the human heart

From the beats, rhymes and echoes of the soul's sacred ghetto
