Cut the heartstrings
Broke the wings off that red-headed songbird
Broke the knife at the hilt
Beat the chest til every rib was bleeding
And all the ghosts were singing
You lost your joy
And all the little men inside your head were screaming
You passed the buck
And all the women came to feast upon your silence
Swallowed the lightning
Let them follow you
Breathed out the fire
Your love is like a bruise
Your hands were shaking
And all your words turned to ice
The bitter bitterness of life
Little stones beneath your feet
You carried them this far
To lay them on the altar
Swallowed the lightning
Let them follow you
Breathed out the fire
Your love is like a bruise
And all the ghosts were singing

Cut the heartstrings
Broke the wings off that red-headed songbird
Broke the knife at the hilt
Beat the chest til every rib was bleeding
And all the ghosts were singing
You lost your joy
And all the little men inside your head were screaming
You passed the buck
And all the women came to feast upon your silence
Swallowed the lightning
Let them follow you
Breathed out the fire
Your love is like a bruise
Your hands were shaking
And all your words turned to ice
The bitter bitterness of life
Little stones beneath your feet
You carried them this far
To lay them on the altar
Swallowed the lightning
Let them follow you
Breathed out the fire
Your love is like a bruise
And all the ghosts were singing
Broke the wings off that red-headed songbird
Broke the knife at the hilt
Beat the chest til every rib was bleeding
And all the ghosts were singing
You lost your joy
And all the little men inside your head were screaming
You passed the buck
And all the women came to feast upon your silence
Swallowed the lightning
Let them follow you
Breathed out the fire
Your love is like a bruise
Your hands were shaking
And all your words turned to ice
The bitter bitterness of life
Little stones beneath your feet
You carried them this far
To lay them on the altar
Swallowed the lightning
Let them follow you
Breathed out the fire
Your love is like a bruise
And all the ghosts were singing
