talons gripped my heart
they're finally releasing
this bird of prey's
been known to say
that hearts are made for eating
all I ever wanted
to spread my wings in flight
to soar up in the sky with her
safety in her nest at night
she comes up silently
swoops down from the sky
rips your heart right out
while she's pecking out your eyes
she'll leave you blind
she's a lonesome animal
love is not her nature
she let her young fall from the tree
left them in the desert
so I let my day dreams go
and fight with all my might
just because she has no heart
won't mean she'll have mine
she comes up silently
swoops down from the sky
rips your heart right out
while she's pecking out your eyes
she'll leave you blind
