Put It In Your Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As I Stare into the flame
Filled up with feelings I can't name
Images of life appear
Regret and anger, love and fear
Dark things drift across the screen
Of mind behind whose veil are seen
Loves ferocious eyes, and clear
The words come flying to my ear
Go on -- put it in your heart
Put it in your heart
Terrible deeds done in the name
Of tunnel vision and fear of change
Surely are expressions of
A soul that's turned it's back on love
All the sirens all the tongues
The song of air in every lung
Heavens perfect alchemy
Put me with you and you with me
Come on -- put that in your heart
Come on put it in your heart
All the sirens all the tongues
The song of air in every lung
Heavens perfect alchemy
Put me with you and you with me
Come on put it in your heart
Come on put it in your heart
