BLACK HEART

Take This Heart
Made Of Purist Gold

It Cannot Withstand
All The Love That I Hold

It Is No Longer
Of Any Use To Me

It Is As Soft And As Weak
As Precious Metal Can Be

I Want A New Heart
That Is STRONG & True

A Heart That Will Not Give
And Make Me Act Like A Fool

So Back Into The Fire
This Heart Of Mine Goes

At The Hands Of Gobban Saer
For Only He Knows

How To Craft A Cathedral
And A Heart Made Of Steel

Strong Enough To Withstand
All The Love That I Feel

A Heart That Is Malleable
To Bend Without Breaking.

Yet, Tough Enough To Deflect
A Love That Is Faking

He Will Forge Me A New Heart
Made Of Stainless Steel

And Make Me A Healthy One
With No Need To Heal

With An Ingot Of Iron
From The Darkest Of Mountains

Extract All The Sorrow
That Overflows From This Fountain

Mined By A Madman
That Searches In Vain

For A Heart Made Of Gold
From An Iron Ore Vein

With Hammer And Anvil
Let The Sparks Fly

Pound Out All The Pain
That wants me to Cry

Then Back Into The Fire
To Make It Red Hot

With A Bellow In Hand. . .
Fan Out All Of The Rot.

The Smoldering Ashes
That Fly Through The Air

Will Rise Up Into Heaven
And Return Up There

If It Cools Too Quickly
I'm Sure You Will Find

That A Hairline Crack
Will Shatter In Time

So Inspect My New Heart
With A Good Going Over

In Case I'm Ever Wrong Again
And I Have To Let Go Her

No Alchemy Needed
For This Transformation

The Tears I Have Shed
Enough Purification

An Immortal Gift
For The Fled Goibnenn Feast

The Elixir Of Life
That I Love In The Least
