An-nyŏng-ha-se-yo Sometimes you gotta bleed to know That you’re alive and have a soul But it takes someone to come around To show you how She’s the tear in my heart I’m alive She’s the tear in my heart I’m on fire She’s the tear in my heart Take me higher Than I’ve ever been The songs on the radio are okay But my taste in music is your face And it takes a song to come around To show you how She’s the tear in my heart I’m alive She’s the tear in my heart I’m on fire She’s the tear in my heart Take me higher Than I’ve ever been Than I’ve ever been Than I’ve ever been Than I’ve ever been You fell asleep in my car I drove the whole time But that’s okay I’ll just avoid the holes so you sleep fine I’m driving here I sit Cursing my government For not using my taxes to fill holes with more cement You fell asleep in my car I drove the whole time But that’s okay I’ll just avoid the holes so you sleep fine I’m driving here I sit Cursing my government For not using my taxes to fill holes with more cement Sometimes you gotta bleed to know, oh, oh That you’re alive and have a soul, oh, oh But it takes someone to come around To show you how She’s the tear in my heart I’m alive She’s the tear in my heart I’m on fire She’s the tear in my heart Take me higher Than I’ve ever been My heart is my armor She’s the tear in my heart She’s a carver She’s a butcher with a smile Cut me farther Than I’ve ever been Than I’ve ever been Than I’ve ever been Than I’ve ever been My heart is my armor She’s the tear in my heart She’s a carver She’s a butcher with a smile Cut me farther Than I’ve ever been
