The Taxidermist

I collect broken hearts
 and yours is no exception
 dissect the parts
 and marvel at the selection
 no visible scars
 but the pain will be explicit
 I'll leave you raw
 but my stitching is exquisite
 It's not fair
 I don't care
 know this
 I am the taxidermist
 It's not right
 that's life
 don't resist
 I am the taxidermist
 I collect damaged hearts
 trophies for my mantle
 pull you apart
 to see what you can handle
 and I know it's sick
 when there's been no provocation
 it's just my defense
 my nature's self preservation
 Given the chance
 you'd do the same to me
 Given the chance
 you'd do the same to me
 Given the chance
 you'd do the same to me
 At least that's what I've learned
 from my history
 It's not fair
 I don't care
 know this
 I am the taxidermist
 It's not right
 that's life
 don't resist
 I am the taxidermist
 I collect broken hearts
 and yours is no exception
 dissect the parts
 and marvel at the selection
 no visible scars
 but the pain will be explicit
 I'll leave you raw
 but my stitching is exquisite
 My stitching is exquisite
