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
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
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
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
Heartburn . .
--------------------------------------------------------
She never said that she was going
And now I can't believe it's true
She could have left a note or something
Before she passed on through
Now there's a hole where she used to be
But I guess it's for the best
Now that my woman's out of here
I can concentrate on the rest
We had good times and we had bad
And sometimes
Sometimes she made me mad
And it sounds just like a cliché
But right now
That's the only way
I can get my message through
I ain't too sad you're gone
I ain't too sad you're gone
I ain't too sad you're gone
When all is said and done
Well you sang my favourite song to me
And I played my guitar
And then we shared a Kodak moment
Before getting back in the car
We had ups and we had downs
And she gave me the run around
And it sounds just like a cliché
But right now
That's the only way
I can get my message through
I ain't too sad you're gone
No no I ain't too sad you're gone
Well you said I would not need you
And now I
Ain't too glad you're wrong
So why am I crying all the time?
Feels like I'm dying all the time
. . .
