Close your eyes, baby,
Hold out your heart.
I’ll keep it a secret locked up in my jar.
No one will see
The punctures and scars.
I’ll strong lies together
With ribbon and stars
About the tears that fell
And died on your lips;
About the blood that drained
To your fingertips.
They won’t have to know
Of your first and last kiss.
Death’s stolen pleaser,
One you won’t miss.
So close your eyes, baby.
Hand over your heart.
I’ll keep it a secret
Caged up in my jar.
