Don't break me I bruise easily The source of both your love and misery I am steady beating endlessly While you are dozing, dreaming pretty things I don't work for free Please take care of me This is a message from your heart Your most devoted body part Taking blood and making art This is a message from your heart Pounding away into the dark You could thank me for a start This is a message from your heart Don't hurt me, I bleed constantly My efforts leave me but flow back swiftly My rhythm soothing, like raindrops steady On foggy windows while you gaze outwardly I don't work for free Please take care of me This is a message from your heart Your most devoted body part Taking blood and making art This is a message from your heart Pounding away into the dark You could thank me for a start This is a message from your heart Every time you sleep Every time you eat Every time you laugh Every time you cry Every time you love This is a message from your heart
