"Heartmind" lyrics

"Heartmind"

Heart stops and starts each day
Giving in itself away
Like a piece of candy on the sidewalk
It tastes the same, candy, crushed or not

Mind evicts heart for stealing its boots
Mind says "You have no respect for property!"
And Heart says "That's true!"
At Turk and Taylor, Heart goes into seizure
Fumbling for meds at Pan's seder

Heartmind

Heartmind, that burnt spot where they had met
Old friends, doctors, teachers, all out on the street
Tucked under the city's tongue
Who will Heart stumble over next, its children?
Empty ketchup packets may inherit the city
Heart stops and starts, giving itself away

Heart stops and starts, giving itself away
Heart stops and starts, giving itself away
Heart stops and starts, giving itself away
Heart stops and starts, giving itself away

Heartmind
