Barbed Wire Heart

I have no substitute
For the imprint of you
Has stained me through and through
There's a void filling a silhouette
There's no doubt that it's you

So I'll let it eat at me
Because it's easy that way
To numb and to stay
With the comforting warmth of the pain
But I'm losing my name

So I'll keep you trapped in here
In my barbed wire heart
Soon the cage match will start
And there will be more blood than expected
At least on my part

Well there's no one to blame
There's no poisonous bane
It's tangling rush in the course of my veins
It's all in myself
It's the dust on the shelf
It's the comforting warmth of the early may rain
Sometimes I'll walk
In the dead of the night
When there's no one alive
And the city is mine
And then when I sleep
I'll watch movies of you
And in the haze of the dream
It will all seem so true
At least on my part

Do you still think of me?
With a tear in your eye
Reflecting the light
Of the 50 watt bulb in your kitchen
It's burned in my mind
