Lyrics

Heart-Shaped Box (Demo)

[Intro] Are we rolling? [Verse 1] She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak I've been buried in a heart-shaped box for weeks You done undid my magnet tar pit trap I wish I could kiss your cancer when I am sick [Chorus] Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your pricеless advice Forevеr in debt to your priceless advice Your advice, your advice, advice [Verse 2] I asked me like a Pisces when I've been weak I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks And in a magnet tar pit film on your trap I wish I could kiss your cancer when I am black [Chorus] Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Forever in debt to your priceless advice Your advice, your advice, your advice [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak I've been locked in heart-shaped coffins for too many weeks You've drawn me into your magnet tar pit trap I wish I could kill your cancer when I am black [Chorus] Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice Forever in debt to your priceless advice Forever in debt to your priceless advice Your advice, your advice, your advice
