There´s a dragon
Blowing fire
In my ventricles
And I can feel
The grip now
Of these tentacles
And I had ideas
Back when I was very young
Like the back of my hand
I thought I´d understand
But now I find myself
Just playing dumb

CHORUS

Heartburn
And my soul
Is red raw
Inside
Heartburn
And don´t the world look different
When you´re lying on the floor
Heartburn
And my soul
Is red raw
Inside
Heartburn
And don´t the world look different
When you´re lying on the floor

There´s a lion
Tearing holes
In my ventricles
And I´m feeling
The effect now
Of these combining chemicals
And I had ideas
Back when I was very young
I thought I could weather the storm
I would not need your warmth
But now I find myself
Just praying for the sun

CHORUS

I´m not joking
The floor is sloping
Towards the things I never wanted to be near
The drop of a tear
Another year
Seen in retrospect
Images I collect
Answers correct
As we continue
To break and connect
