Ignore the Elephant - Heartbeat Lyrics

You tried on my last name and turned your face away
I've been clean until today
Now I'm drowning
We let our lips do all the talking
Not a single word was said
Then the bullet hit my head on my crowning
I give in to the illusion of affection you present
It's a merciless intrusion of the mind that I resent
One, two, three
Pour yourself all over me
Let every drop of blood run free
And I'll marry you in a heartbeat
I'll marry you in a heartbeat
And i don't want to hear it if you don't mean what you say
But say it anyway
With our thoughts and bodies intertwined
You were drunk enough to speak your mind
And you said you're not allowed to cry
And you never, never
Never, never
Wanted us to end up like this
And I don't want to end like this
Hate to admit it but I miss you like a bashful little child
And if a night is all I get I'll fool myself it's worth the while
One, two, three
Pour yourself all over me
Let every drop of blood run free
And I'll marry you in a heartbeat
I'll marry you in a heartbeat
Work your art
Like you've been doing from the start
And bend me 'til I break apart
Walk all over me with heels on your feet
I'll marry you in a heartbeat
Want you to want me
But you don't want me
Now your toothbrush is a relic of a now that turned to past
And i wonder why the future had to come so f*cking fast
Two, three
Pour yourself all over me
Let every drop of blood run free
For the smell of you on my sheets
I'll marry you in a heartbeat
One, two, three
Pour yourself all over me
Let every drop of blood run free
And I'll marry you in a heartbeat
I'll marry you in a heartbeat
I give in to the illusion of affection you present
It's a merciless intrusion of the mind that I resent
And i don't care if you devour every hour I have spent
Want you to want me
But you don't want me
So i don't want to want you
But I want you anyway
