Lyrics
Hey hey baby won't you play for me
A talent for the hurt I like
I'm not running from the tragedy
This is who I am
This is who I am
Tell me once and I will soon forget
A trick of a breaking mind
My heart bleeds pure upon my sleeve
You can break it but it's hard to find
I'm telling you it's hard to find
This is all
This is all I have to
This is all I have to give
Give to you
A prisoner, a visitor
Shackled to my heart, my heart
A prisoner, a visitor
Shackled to my heart, my heart
Hey hey baby don't just walk away
Falling's such a nervous act
I can't climb down and end this game
Would you tell me if I sold act
The opposite soul attracts
And I can't hold you back
This is all
This is all I have to
This is all I have to give
Give to you
A prisoner, a visitor
Shackled to my heart, my heart
A prisoner, a visitor
Shackled to my heart, my heart
It's a purpose
We'll unearth us
If we surface
We could shine
Like a service
For the worthless
Have you heard
We could shine
If you save me
From the slavery
From the grave
Of ticking time
I will take you
I will make you
Yeah we'll pray it's allright
Yeah we'll pray it's alright
Yeah we'll pray it's alright
Yeah we'll pray it's alright
This is all
This is all I have to
This is all I have to give
A prisoner, a visitor
Shackled to my heart, my heart
A prisoner, a visitor
Shackled to my heart, my heart
Shackled to my heart, my heart
Shackled to my heart, my heart
