Tryin' hard to recognise Some pure motive inside of me A creature that would horrify Any child that I used to be Oh, give no faith to show Started to smile, so I showed my teeth No more than flesh and bone Doin' so much just to watch someone bleed But I love the very blood of you It keeps its heat in spite of you Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always Tryin' hard, I nearly find Innocence in spite of me Oh, creature that would terrify Any child left inside of me Oh, that's a cold insight Nothin' above us and nothin' below Ahh, but you might be right If there is no heaven and there is no soul I just love the very blood of you It keeps its heat in spite of you Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always Always... Oh, I love the very blood of you It keeps its heat in spite of you Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always Oh, I love the very blood of you Leaks and squeeks you black and blue Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always
