Don't break me
I bruise easily
The source
Of both your love
And misery

I am steady
Beating endlessly
While you are dozing
Dreaming pretty things
Lovely things

I don't work for free
Please take care of me

[Chorus:]
This is a message
From your heart
Your most devoted
Body part
Taking blood
And making art
This is a message
From your heart
Pounding away
Into the dark
You could thank me
For a start
This is a message
Ffrom your heart

Don't hurt me
I bleed constantly
My efforts leave me
But flow back swiftly

My rhythm, soothing
Like raindrops steady
On foggy windows
When you gaze outwardly
Peacefully

I don't work for free
Please take care of me
Please take care of me

[Chorus]

Everytime you sleep
Everytime you eat
Everytime you laugh
Everytime you cry
Every time you love

[Chorus]
