lyrics

"Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell." --Matthew 10:28, New Revised Standard Version

Attached, so attached to this love;
a death grip on the fraying rope high above the canyon.
I am faithful to the catch in my throat.
To proving I can hold out against the instinct that says, “Just RUN.”

Chorus:
But where's the fun in that?
My body says, “No”, my soul says, “No”.
My heart says, “Fuck it- I'm not scared:
I just don't care.”

Maybe if I breathe fast enough I could go up in flames.
Your name is curled up before the furnace of my heart
like a tame beast, but my love in your teeth.
How dangerous you make me!

And there's no good reason for it.
My body says, “No”, my soul says, “No”.
My heart says, “For god's sake- this is me.
I'll do whatever I want and pretend it makes me happy.”

I'm a little bit afraid of the things I am capable of.
I pick up little stones and say, “This is full of love.”

And of course they're not, but that's not the point.
The point is that my body says, “No”, my soul says, “No”.
But my heart just laughs and goes out of it's way to sabotage me.
Flushed with vigor as it feeds on my blood like a tick or a flea,
my heart says, “Fear me.”
