Would you butcher my love
To understand it
To know where it lies?
Cut a hole in my heart
Fill a hole in your life
I'm yours to dissect
Now, does every heartbeat
Burn white heat in your blood?
(He is saying she analyzes everything to death, dissecting his feelings and
reading into everything he does just to find out if he really loves her)
Formaldehyde (He is calling her this, as if she is keeping him in this state of being disembodied and not feeling whole.)
The tissue and bones
my soul has on loan
Aches to be near you
Are you listening carefully?
Then we shall begin
(It doesn't matter how many times he tells her he loves her, she doesn't belief him)
Now does every heartbeat
Burn white heat in your blood?
(this is what she wants...him to be infatuated with her)
I hope it doesn't matter
I hope we swim up out of this flood
(but he hopes they get out of this rut)
Of formaldehyde (I'll never let you go)
Formaldehyde (until the end of time)
Formaldehyde (I'll never let you go)
Formaldehyde (oh formaldehyde)
(because he does love her)
Smother my love, entertain it
My mind's gonna wander
Are you listening carefully?
Then we shall begin
(He's saying that if she smother's him so much, he's gonna loose
interest in her)
Oh
Now does every heartbeat
Burn white heat in your blood?
I hope it doesn't matter
I hope we swim up out of this flood
Of formaldehyde (I'll never let you go)
Formaldehyde (until the end of time)
Formaldehyde (I'll never let you go)
Formaldehyde (oh, Formaldehyde)
I'm lost to a love that's a mile wide
Drowning in a bath of formaldehyde
(he can't seem to leave her, even though he knows this relationship is not healthy)
Now does every heartbeat
Burn white heat in your blood?
I hope it doesn't matter
I hope we swim up out of this flood
Of formaldehyde (I'll never let you go)
Formaldehyde (until the end of time)
Formaldehyde (I'll never let you go)
Formaldehyde (Oh Formaldehyde)
I'm lost to a love that's a mile wide
Drowning in a bath of formaldehyde
Just my thoughts:
