Jenny Owen Youngs - Here Is A Heart 
Here is a heart 
Here is a heart 
I made it for you so take it 
Battered and braised 
Grilled and sautéed 
Just how you like it 
You know I live to fill you up 
Blood of my blood 
Dripping with love 
I ll bring you the thing 
you need most 
Silent between 
supplies and machine 
I ll hang in the corners like a ghost 
You know I live to be seen through 
No better way that I can see 
to spend all the time 
while you re asleep 
When holding your hands inside of mine 
I want to be here and nowhere else 
Rationing off bits of myself 
So I can crumble at your side 
Sleep like the dead 
through the noise in your head 
My monitors click 
and whir and glow 
I m with you all day 
and also we would stay 
Tomorrow and onward just this close 
You know I live to keep you safe 
No better way that I can see
