Would you butcher my love 
   C               Dm
To understand it? 
Am               Dm
To know where it lies, 
      C                 Dm
Cut a hole in my heart. 
       C                  Dm
Fill a hole in your life, 
Am              Dm
I'm yours to dissect.

Now does every heartbeat, 
                          G
Burn a white heat in your blood? 

        C       Dm
Formaldehyde.

My soul has on loan 
Am           Dm
Begs to be near you. 
        C                  Dm
Are you listening carefully? 
     C                  Dm
Then we shall begin. 

Am      Dm

I hope it doesn't matter,

I hope we swim up out of this flood.
