Here Is a Heart

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 bring you a thing you need most Silent between supplies and machines I 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 wanna 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 While monitors click and whirr 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, oh No better way that I can see To spend all the time while you're asleep When holding your hands inside of mine I wanna 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 wanna be here and nowhere else Rationing off bits of myself So I can crumble at your side
