Go on, love
Take a bite of my heart
I'm holding it out for you
I promise I won't bite back
I'm too far gone to worry about the rain at home,
And I ain't never going back.
So go ahead and burn my things, my dreams, my body
And dance in the smoke til you choke
And take a bite of my heart.
Don't worry, you won't hurt me too badly
I'm beyond pain now.
After a bullet in the head,
I can't feel the knife in my back.
After a night with you, honey,
Your teeth in my heart don't bother me at all.
