An Eagle's Claw

If you take away my heart, seems crazy
But I'll live my life the same
I don't need a valve to pump and maybe I won't have to live today
And it seems like pride's always the answer
To me pride's so far away
And I breathe for love, so I'll breathe faster
It doesn't have to be this way
It doesn't have to be this way

How can I say that I'm a mess to you tonight?
How can I say I feel alive and yet I've died?
I've seen the worst and yet I'm happier
My pride's alone
How can I say that love's illusions caught my eye?

Oh, it's hard to live a life so mellow when you have a knife within
It's an operation drenched with trouble
It's a poison in my skin
This procedure's taking oh so long to remove what's in my rib cage
My head is spinning off
My mind's soon going to be erased today
It doesn't have to be this way

How can I say that I'm a mess to you tonight?
How can I say I feel alive and yet I've died?
I've seen the worst and yet I'm happier
My pride's alone
How can I say that love's illusions caught my eye?

Oh, I need a life
I need some time
My body's grieving;" I need you" (need you)
My body's right, I'm crazy
I'm going insane because I need you (need you, need you, need you, I)

How can I say that I'm a mess to you tonight?
(How can I say that I'm a mess to you tonight?)
How can I say I feel alive and yet I've died?
I've seen the worst and yet I'm happier
My pride's alone
How can I say that love's illusions caught my eye?
How can I say that love's illusions caught my eye?
How can I say that I'm a mess to you tonight?
