Everything's easier with a heart of stone You can kill to make it work Set a fire in my heart And watch it burn I know you like a challenge So I'll wipe your slate clean If you don't mind having me
And if your blessings fall It's too late to count them all Count everything to go to sleep And make everyone else keep time on you Go slow, don't you go, go, oh
Chorus You've got a paper lung That you borrowed from your wall And I'm not sure why you love me, love me I've got a heart of stone That I carved all on my own Still not sure why you love me, love me
Take a leap Four whole streets I'll meet you down by your feet I'm collecting all your gold At the checkpoint, go run slow Leaving you alone, oh And if your blessings fall Try anything to count them all Count sheep just to fall asleep And make everyone else keep time on you Go slow, don't you go, go, oh
(Chorus)
Take a little bit of my heart Save it for a time when you Wish that maybe we were apart
