Chrome Plated Heart Lyrics

I got a chrome-plated heart

 I got wings on these fingers trying to tear it apart

 I got angels crying from up above

 And they got rust in their eyes

 They got rust on their love

 But I have learned to leave no stone unturned

 And keep the wall against my back

 And the love is real as the day is long

 And the night is black

 As black as night

 

 I got a two dollar stare

 Midas in my touch and Delilah in my hair

 I got bad intentions on the soles of my shoes

 With this red hot fever and these chromium blues

 And I will feel another lovers wheel

 And drive for miles and not look back

 And the love is real as the day is long

 And the night is black

 As black as night

 

 On my chrome-plated heart

 Wings on these fingers trying to tear it apart

 I got angels crying from up above

 And they got rust in their eyes

 They got rust on their love

 And the only way I know where the train will go

 Is when I'm sleeping on the tracks

 And the love is real as the day is long

 And the night is black

 As black as night

 And the night is black

 As black as night
