Brittle Heart

Brittle Heart - Brett Anderson

Give me your brittle heart

And your ashtray eyes

I'll give you carpet burns

And slanteen life

And all that power and all that passion

Can be ours tonight

Give me your brittle heart

And I'll light a fire

I'll make an effigy from a lock of your hair

And all those cinders and all those embers

Can be ours to share

Now

Take them all on and force down their doors now

Take them all on and walk through the walls now

Take them all on and crawl to your door

And crawl to your door

Give me your brittle heart

And your orphan's eyes

I'll give you carpet burns and antiseptic skies

And all that power and all that passion

Can be ours tonight

Now

Take them all on and force through their doors now

Take them all on and walk through their walls now

Take them all on and crawl to your door

And crawl to your door

And woohh ohhooohh and woohh ohooo and woohh ohooo

And I'll come to you like a ship to the shore

Like a paper plane that falls to the floor

And I'll take them all on and crawl to your door

And crawl to your door

Give me your brittle heart

Give me your brittle heart

Give me your brittle heart

And I'll light a fire

Wooh hohoh hhohooooo

Light a fire

Give me your brittle heart

And I'll light a fire

Give me your brittle heart

And I'll light a fire
