lyrics

I am Jack's broken heart
pumping silently and unsure
Blood flowing in and out of me
never stopping by to say hello
Motionless motion
That's what it feels like
Half-smiling uninviting so long
You can't cheer up an empty heart
with a clown's approach

I've floated around
Now I'm drowning in blue
I need someone
Going out of my mind
I don't know what to do
Could you see me through this?

A hopeless head is an abandoned head
Every face it sees is an ugly face
An ugly face is a pretty face
on the inside
but you can see with tears in your eyes

Welcome me with your mat
'Cause I'm knocking for you
I need someone
Put my heart in a bottle
Advanced it to you
Could you see me through this?

You can't cheer up an empty heart
but you can comfort it
Oh somehow I'm going to reach you
Teach me
I don't know what to do
If I am blue I'll be a blue bird
flying to reach you
Please leave your window cracked

I've floated around
Now I'm drowning in blue
I need someone
Going out of my mind
I don't know what to do
Could you see me through this?

Welcome me with your mat
'Cause I'm knocking for you
Could you feed me your love?
Put my heart in a bottle
advanced it to you
Could you see me through this?
