someone take the pulse of my heart; is it beating?
'cause i'm afraid it's rarely been used and i've been confused and hungry
i've been thinking about the way you said things could be if i
drop my disguise, uncover my eyes, and see you love
and fiercely clutching me is a life i've tried to flee
but i'm still at home, i'm still alone
'cause i've embraced myself
and now fiercely after you
i'll trembling ask of you
destroy all that i've held until all i have to hold is you

i'm handing you the rest of my heart for your shaping
but still i'm afraid of what it'll take for my hands to break forever
i've been thinking about the way you said things could be if i
drop my disguise, uncover my eyes and see you love
and fiercely clutching me is a life i've tried to flee
but i'm still at home, i'm still alone
'cause i've embraced myself
and now fiercely after you
i'll trembling ask of you
destroy all that i've held until all i have to hold is you

i've been thinking about the way you said things could be if i
drop my disguise, uncover my eyes and see you love

i took the rations of the surface
i'm not satisfied
drag me deep enough to taste
starving inside
i'm starving inside
starving inside
i'm starving inside
and fiercely clutching me is a life i've tried to flee
but i'm still at home, i'm still alone
'cause i've embraced myself
and now fiercely after you
i'll trembling ask of you
destroy all that i've held until all i have to hold is you
still i'm afraid
