Cover art for Heart-Shaped Box (Box Set version) lyrics by Nirvana

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak (a child looks at him sympathetically or compassionately when he is really emotional, hes probably touched that someone so young has cancer and it is even more touching that a person in such a life or death situation could still have empathy for another)

I've been buried in a heart-shaped box for weeks (hes been searching himself for weeks, that or the opposite..hes been closing off his feelings)

You done undid my magnet tar pit trap (she took down all his defenses and really got to him)

I wish I could eat your cancer when I am weak (he wants to take away her pain, hes really truly upset)

Hey Wait I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice

I asked me like a Pisces like when I've been weak I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks And in a magnet tar pit film on your trap I wish I could catch your cancer when I am black

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak I've been locked in heart-shaped coffins for too many weeks You've drawn me into your magnet tar pit trap I wish I could kill your cancer when I am black
