Black 47 - Fanatic Heart Lyrics
I remember your eyes from the 12th of JulyWhen the sirens were screamin' and the flames lit the skyAnd you held me so tight, thought you'd never let go'Til the bullets exploded on the pavement belowAnd I laid you down next to a burnt out carScreamed out for help but you were gone too farStill got that picture of you locked away from the startDeveloping inside my fanatic heartI went around in a daze for a couple of yearsWith the blood in my veins frozen over with tearsAnd I did anything that they asked me to do'Cause all I could see was that picture of youAnd the young ones passin' by'd say, "how's about you - real hard man"Deep down inside I was just a castle of sandStill had that picture of you locked away from the startDeveloping inside my fanatic heartThen they took me inside, threw me up against a wallThey put electric prods on my chest and my ballsAnd they told me to sign things that I knew weren't trueAnd in the end I did what they told me to doThen they locked me up and threw away the keyAnd left me there with just your memoryNow I walk through New York like a grey silhouetteTryin' hard to remember what I'm supposed to forgetThat look in your eyes on the 12th of JulyWhen the sirens were screamin' and the flames lit the skyHey I sleep with other women and I hold them through the night'Cause all I want to do is just get on with my lifeBut that picture of you won't let me make a new startIt's frozen inside my fanatic heart.
