Black Heart

from The War Inside Me by Dismantled

/

lyrics

I will let you in
Like the thousands before you
Let you crack my skin
Oh, doesn't that feel good?
You can be dead or alive
It doesn't matter to me
'Cause once you're inside I'll never let you be free

'Cause I got a black heart
Why did you ever follow?
When you saw my eyes
You should've ran for cover
And when I held you close
You were just something to feel
I've got a black heart
I'll do it to you like they did it to me

Now it's 6 AM
There's pills all over the bed
My eyes inside your head
And you're the moth burning in their flame
You hear my voice on the phone
But it'll just tell you what you want to hear
There's nothing more
The more you beat your wings
The thicker you will feel the ice grow
And when you're foaming out the mouth
And I'm breaking down that door, I hope you know

I got a black heart
Why did you ever follow?
When you saw my eyes
You should've ran for cover
And when I held you close
You were just something to feel
I've got a black heart
I'll do it to you like they did it to me...
To me

Now you're awake and we're together again
You see the trees floating by like the ocean waves
I know you're bound and gagged but it's better this way
I can't stand to hear you tell me you still care
I whisper to you "baby, this is the end"
I found a way out

We'll be here forever
Just dust, floating in the summer air
