Beating hearts

You are every part of my beating heart
You are the blood within me
My love outweighs my lust for you
My head outweighs my heart

I am with you through eternity
Or until my blood stops pumping
Without you rushing through my veins
There is no life within me

Give up the things you love for love
Love despite your mood
Take me as I am
Let me love you

Blood on the hands of the son of God
Oh, the pain that love brings
I will try to defend our love
From false feelings

Bend like a bow in the archers hand
Arrows run swiftly
Strike my flesh, then my bones then pierce my heart
Love's poison seeping

Give up the things you love for love
Love despite your mood
Take me as I am
Let me love you

Dead to the world you've become my universe
An act of perfect poison
Crippled deaf and blind I've become
My arms hang loose from my shoulders
Without my arms I cannot hold a shield
Or wield a mighty sword
Every drop of blood that stains the earth
A stamp on the ground that I love you

Give up the things you love for love
Love despite your mood
Take me as I am
Let me love you
