Perfect Heart Lyrics by MAITA

Best Wishes

2020

These wrists, they are but fragile things
They twist to mold to company
And shaky hold up any two things
Balanced blindly, bending rashly
And if them tendons bruise, so be it
I repair them after every use, so be it
These hands, they take down everything
On feeding patterns and breathing cadence
Comparing notes with poets of last century
They say, 'Honey, you’re temporary'
And so are you, so be it
And if you choose to be alone, I’ll break even
And all the lonely parts
They won’t speak, they won’t speak, they won’t speak
And all the angry parts
They’ve hidden their teeth deep in the dark
And all the selfish parts
They take what they get and they hold their tongues
And this perfect heart
Well, it does what it does
These legs, they take on all the world
They’re strong and they do what they’re told
Walk thirteen miles, three days sore
Reach the outskirts and go ten more
And if they must carry me from this place, so be it
'Cause this city holds such precious things
While it burns the tongue and it bothers sleep
And Sscks me dry through my staring eye
But I learn to walk and with my body lie
And I’m lying pretty damn well these days
And if it didn’t sell, I was keeping it anyways
If he ran away, I was sick of him anyways... so
And all the lonely parts
They won’t speak, they won’t speak, they won’t speak
And all the angry parts
They’ve hidden their teeth deep in the dark
And all the selfish parts
They take what they get and they hold their tongues
And the broken parts
They’re set and they’re taped and they get it done
And my two clear eyes
They’re painted vacant, they do not defy
And this worn-out line
It suits me just fine, let’s not waste our time
Oh I really did try
No matter, no matter, it’s fine
Because this perfect heart
It does what it does
