Bleeding Heart
The sun shrivels the grass
The snow blankets, the hillside
The bleeding heart blooms
I hope that you are still alive
(Are still alive)
You carried me for months on end
In a basket made of human limbs
And we shared each breath of oxygen
Till our lungs were half full
Our stomachs half fed
Till our lungs were half full
Our stomachs half fed
Now you're playing cards with severed heads
Detached from the bodies of what used to be your friends
And a crown of bramble bleeds your skin
I don't think I'll be seeing you again
I don't think I'll be seeing you again
We make promises that we can't keep
Reminded of each other by the rain
We stay dry but still we can't sleep
And on cold nights
We have grown to need
But I've learned to use these two lungs to breathe on my own
We make promises we can't keep
Out of the rain but we still can't sleep
On cold nights, we've grown to need
But I've learned to use my own lungs to breathe
Yes I've learned to use my own lungs to breathe
(Na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
I hope you're still alive (You never said goodbye)
The snow blankets, the hillside
The bleeding heart blooms
I hope that you are still alive
(Are still alive)
You carried me for months on end
In a basket made of human limbs
And we shared each breath of oxygen
Till our lungs were half full
Our stomachs half fed
Till our lungs were half full
Our stomachs half fed
Now you're playing cards with severed heads
Detached from the bodies of what used to be your friends
And a crown of bramble bleeds your skin
I don't think I'll be seeing you again
I don't think I'll be seeing you again
We make promises that we can't keep
Reminded of each other by the rain
We stay dry but still we can't sleep
And on cold nights
We have grown to need
But I've learned to use these two lungs to breathe on my own
We make promises we can't keep
Out of the rain but we still can't sleep
On cold nights, we've grown to need
But I've learned to use my own lungs to breathe
Yes I've learned to use my own lungs to breathe
(Na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na)
I hope you're still alive (You never said goodbye)
