Tell tale heart don’t you
Tell your tales on me
Don’t you see
How it would all fall apart
So don’t start
My tell tale heart
Hand of glory take your
Hangman’s grip off me
Don’t you see
You can’t curse me
You were beaten to the start
By that bad old tell tale heart
My tell tale heart.
Third eye blind, send me a sign
Got those crossroads on my mind
Got a soul to keep but the cuts are deep
Carved by that tell tale heart.
I ain’t got the stomach for it but I know
There’s only one way to go
To the heart of the matter, the torn and the tattered
My enemy inside which tears me apart
My tell tale heart
You can put away your hoodoo dreams
Sew that voodoo doll up at the seams
You’ll never hurt me like I hurt myself
Me and my tell tale heart
Left up on the shelf
My tell tale heart
So strap me to the heart attack machine
Pull out your deck and crown me queen
My heart disowns me as it gains pace
Pulling me out of the human race
Heart don’t tell no more tales on me
Heartless I’m free!
It beats in me no more
Sits bleeding, begging outside your door
My tell tale heart in me no more
You can keep all your bleeding heart bonanzas
Your lily livered stanzas
Your tender hearted kisses
Your big hearted misses
I’d rather pass time together with me
Big old bad old cold old betrayer
My tell tale heart
Together from the start
My tell tale heart
