I decide to tear open my head And take a look at my brain I held it aloft in the midday sun And wondered where the fucking scar tissue had come from I guess I tore my fingers through my hair Once or twice too often Because now all my thoughts and screams Are locked in that flesh coffin So I made up my mind to fix my brain After reading the scattered tarot cards that lay on my floor I took a knife and scored away the layers of tissue Leaving it newly exposed and sore I decided to tear open my chest And take a look at my heart So I held it aloft under pale moonlight And threw it away with a scream of fright My heart was a shriveled, starved dark stone Wires twined 'round my arteries Leaving it starved and alone So I made up my mind to fix my heart Glancing once more at the scattered cards So I slit my wrists to feed it It wasn't all that hard. My brain and heart both lay reborn Outside my body, anew And now my body lays useless and dead So I'm giving them both to you
