Pick out the lock, loosen the knot
Down to the end of the rope
My love isn't dead, it's just cracking an egg
And checking for blood in the yolk
Blood in the yolk, blood in the yolk
I don't wanna let go
And let it all burn down
Blood in the yolk
We can plant it back into the ground
Sharpen the knife, imagine your life
Peeling a layer of skin
Start over again at the sewing machine
Happily stitching the trim
Blood in the yolk, blood in the yolk
I don't wanna let go
And let it all burn down
Blood in the yolk
We can plant it back into the ground
Blood in the yolk, blood in the yolk
I don't wanna let go
And let it all burn down
Blood in the yolk
Who can plant it back into the ground
Cutting the cord, forget the reward
It's already there in your hand
Hold up this end and just tell me when
I'll stretch it as far as I can
Blood in the yolk, blood in the yolk
I don't wanna let go
And let it all burn down
Blood in the yolk
We can plant it back into the ground
