Give Me No Heart Of Gold

Take away this heart of
Stone of mine
It’s heaviness
I feel it dropping
Roughing up my insides
Scratching
Tearing
My soul
Owwwwwwwww
Take it away
But give me
No
Heart of gold
That shiny stuff
Bringing greed and
Envy
Hateful stuff
Wherever it goes
No
Keep your golden hearts!
I want a heart of feathers
Light-hearted feathers
Tickle to tears feathers
Laughing feathers
Feathers for me
Yes
Keep those hearts of
Gold
Ugh
Stone
Oww
Give to me instead one of
Feathers
