gnutmeg: (light)
I'm sorry, I haven't got a heart, sir
there's nothing but a hollow space
beneath my heaving chest

a giant came and ate it up, taken whilst I slept
so there's nought left but blood
to fill my body with

it's not near so bad as it may seem
to live without that part's just fine
for now I can't be broke

and though you be a darling man
though you do your best to please
I remain unmoved

I would that I could love you more
in the dear way you deserve
but I cannot be your miss
