Extract

[Verse 1]

To say at least, I'm alive (To say at least, I’m alive)

Seems so melodramatic

No evidence suggests

That a heart within someone's chest

Can bruise, no longer be used

Simply from a losing love

But I must say

[Verse 2]

That if our earthly vessels worked that way

The beating mind depends upon would vanish

And I'd be gone, by now

Yeah, if love was a sound

Then stark silence is all we would hear

But these words

[Verse 3]

That some might think too much at first

Indulgent and a bit absurd

So what if they are? They’re still true

They're all I have left of you

So I'll guard them with every last breath

And let myself say anything instead

'Cause what's harder than that?

Than two hearts from which love would extract
