Nightshade

I'm the target on his chest On my knees I'll show you what bleeding is You will risk and you will pay When he speaks he speaks through me Burdens are for shoulders Strong enough to carry them This is just my cross to bear Heavy heart and hungry prayer Heavy heart and hungry prayer Looking back into eternity Held the book up for the priest Made confirmation teacher weep Could never get a hold of me Last night I had the wackest dream Baby girl had gone missing No one would believe me But I wouldn't stop looking Found her in a hundred pieces Heart apart from all the rest Told her that I'd bring her back to life No matter what the sacrifice I did my best to put her back together Emptied every vein on earth and heaven Mortal love is now electric Now I love her more than ever Now I love her more than ever I'm the target on his chest On my knees I'll show you what bleeding is You will risk and you will pay When he speaks he speaks through me Burdens are for shoulders Strong enough to carry them This is just my cross to bear Heavy heart and hungry prayer Heavy heart and hungry prayer Heavy heart and hungry prayer
