lyrics

---A Muscle Marked---

// How you hold my heart
It’s a muscle marked //

How you hold my heart
A muscle marked, a moving part
How you test my tongue
You take me on
Take me apart
Bring me brightly back
A bag of nerves as hot as wire
How you hold my heart
A piston starts a signal fire only for you

// How you hold my heart
It’s a muscle marked //

How you sketch my skin
My limber limbs leaning in
How you make my mouth
Shout it out and breathe it in
Bring me brightly back
A cell of cells that spit and spark
How you hold my heart
A moving part, a muscle marked only for you

Now you’ve built my bones you can’t leave me alone
You hold my heart, spit and spark
Now you’ve built my brains it’s like ‘never again!’
You hold my heart, breathe it in

// How you hold my heart
It’s a muscle marked //
