Oh when I look to the shape of my heart
It's separated only by scars
That cut in and cut out
Oh and leave me without
Oh a heart that functions at all
And when I look to the shape of the sky
I give thanks for this hollow chest of mine;
That I no longer feel
The great weight of ordeals
That can make this life so unkind
Oh and if there's any love in me
Don't let it show
Oh and if there's any love in me
Don't let it grow
Oh when the wild was all covered by snow
I forgot the colours that the grass tend to grow
Oh the trees were all leafless
And lifeless and black
And I wondered if the leaves could grow back
For your heart is like a flower as it grows
And its the rain, not just the sun that helps it bloom
And you don't know how it feels to be alive
Until you know how it feels to die
It's separated only by scars
That cut in and cut out
Oh and leave me without
Oh a heart that functions at all
And when I look to the shape of the sky
I give thanks for this hollow chest of mine;
That I no longer feel
The great weight of ordeals
That can make this life so unkind
Oh and if there's any love in me
Don't let it show
Oh and if there's any love in me
Don't let it grow
Oh when the wild was all covered by snow
I forgot the colours that the grass tend to grow
Oh the trees were all leafless
And lifeless and black
And I wondered if the leaves could grow back
For your heart is like a flower as it grows
And its the rain, not just the sun that helps it bloom
And you don't know how it feels to be alive
Until you know how it feels to die
