Lyrics

Hearts That Strangle

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.

It's not for the faint hearted

Not for the ones who've parted from you

It's not for you

It's not for those who gamble

It's not for hearts that strangle

But you

Always for you

It's all so disconcerting

At times, it is just unnerving

But you, you helped me through

Oh you helped me...
