Keeper Of My Heart Lyrics

for you

i would tattoo me

with lines crossing into a hand

and a heart that would never bleed

with the twilight

and the horse drawn on my arm

standing for an addiction

pray we go unharmed

here is my love and anger

you see now

these are my gods

these are my scars

here is my love and anger

well these arms are burning

but they're open wide

some things

i hold too tightly

some things

i'll never

i'll never touch

oh but i'm wearing down the stones

in the river

and you see all my life

i've painted with anger's brush

now, now could you

lift me through my love and anger

you see now

these are your gods

these are my scars

lift me through my love and anger

ah and my arms are burning

but they're open wide

oh

you precious kid

i have a motion

and it's just for you

i see a warrior

barefoot and dancing

oh with tears of pain and beauty

and all of this is true

for you

lift me through my love and anger

you see now these are my gods

these are your scars

lift me through my love and anger

oh and my arms are burning

and they're open wide

pointing out the graveyards

i will be the reaper

if you will be

the keeper of my heart

i will be the reaper

if you will be

the keeper of my heart

you are the keeper of this heart

of my heart
