I used to have a heart worth a billion bucks
Now it's shitty, shoddy, cheap
Sell it in my sleep for the fakes to eat
While they kiss my ass and tell me what I need
Sex fiends with a vacant dream, a tattoo of a soul
And the words you said ringing in my head
Wonder where the love they stole is hiding
All I wanna do is be mended by you
I don't wanna be confused, I just want to find you
All I wanna kill is that which keeps me ill
Underwhelmed and unfulfilled
Denial of the knowledge that
They're living in a lame excuse
Denial of the fact they're fed
It's like they're gorging on the truth
Its not alright with me
The love I lack, I need, I want you back
It's not alright with me
The circle torn apart, I used to have a heart
I used to have a heart
I used to know a girl with the deepest trust
That a man could ever know
I broke her neck with the lack of respect
That I learned as an embryo on the West Coast
Where the dead paint Hollywood red
The facade is well fed with the blood of the Capulets
Spread like jelly on bread, marking the doors of the firstborns
Weaned from birth on meds
All I wanna say is this could be okay
I don't wanna be a slave, just want to spend my days
Wandering through the haze, your voice to lead the way
I can finally go and say, hey
I was in denial of the knowledge that
I was living in an empty lie
I was in denial of what you are to me
My heart, my love, my guide
It's not alright with me
The love I lack, I need, I want you back
It's not alright with me
The circle torn apart, I used to have a heart
There you are in front of me
Luminescent as you used to be
Just sing the saddest song for me
Revive me, revive me
[Incomprehensible]
I used to have a heart
