Concrete Heart

I want to relate
Try to excavate
You red and you raw
Through metal and bone
To see what’s inside
My jekyll and hyde
To find me a heart
I’ll keep it alive

Crush our embers
Bleed into me
Bound forever
Make my concrete heart

So come on with me
Through violence supreme
Through fire and the smoke
Creation provoke
Mix blood with my ash
Your skin laced with sand
Through sickness and health
Organically dealt

You’ll drown in the coal
Forever we’re whole
Our fossilised love
It’s taking control
Our ceaseless embrace
Affection encased
'Til ruin and silence
Falling in grace

This vow solidify
Our limitless
Our never-ending bond
These charcoal chains inside
Will never be apart
