My Heart Is Not A Machine - Whitley, Fractures

My heart is not a machine

It beats for you and all the others that I love

My heart is not anything

That you haven’t seen before

It sings hold me now

Did I think I was a king somehow?

Alone is a song

Where the lonely belong

My heart is not a machine

It beats alone in all the darkness of the night

My heart is all I have

And I pledge it all to you

It sings hold me now

Did I think I was a king somehow?

Alone is the song

Where the lonely belong

It sings louder than before

Everything that’s set in stone

It sings louder than the fire

I poured down my neck just to kill desire

Just to kill desire

My heart is not a machine

It beats in time with all the others that I love
