My Heart Lyrics

I came up near to you
My arm around your waist
I was wanting to get to know you
Lean in and get a taste
I could hear your heart beating
And I found I wanted to eat your heart up
Chew it up and swallow
Get your blood to flow through my head
Oh no…

If I were to eat your heart up
And get your blood to flow in my wake
I’d be on to make the same mistake again
With someone else
You would be so easy to eat
You would be so easy to eat
You would be so easy to eat

My heart is like a savage, starving out and hiding low
Sees a chance it strikes and drags its kill back underground to gorge
Oh my heart…

I held you high off the ground
Lately you’re telling me
You wanna be let down and you could walk around in the world with me
Oh my heart…

Where would we start? What would we do?
And what would people think
When they saw me out with you
It’s so easy to feel like you have to hide your heart away
It’s so easy to feel like you have to hide it all away
It’s so easy to feel like you have to hide it all

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for My Heart lyrics by Blow, The

I don't know if this about being gay/bi (I don't know if KM is gay or bi) but it reminds me of how I felt about being gay in high school. I was really ashamed of having sexual/romantic feelings so when I did have them they were very intense and surreptitious and I never told anyone--like the part about the heart going underground to gorge. So I like to think the end of the song is about not being ashamed of/compartmentalizing your sexuality.
