Indigo Girls
Keeper of My Heart
[Verse 1]
For you
I would tattoo me
With lines crossing into a hand
And a heart that would never bleed
With the twilight
And the horse drawn on my arm
Standing for an addiction
Pray we go unharmed

[Chorus]
Here is my love and anger
You see now
These are my gods
These are my scars
Here is, here is my love and anger
Well, these arms are burning
But they're open wide

[Verse 2]
Some things
I hold too tightly
Some things
I'll never, I'll never touch
Oh, but I'm wearing down the stones
In the river
And you see all my life
I've painted with anger's brush
Now, now could you
[Chorus]
Lift me through my love and anger
You see now
These are your gods
These are my scars
Lift me through my love and anger
Oh, and my arms are burning
But they're open wide

[Verse 3]
Oh
You precious kid (Kid)
I have a motion
And it's just for you
I see a warrior
Barefoot and dancing
Oh, with tears of pain and beauty
And all of this is true
For you

[Chorus]
Lift me through my love and anger
You see now
These are my gods
These are your scars
Lift me through my love and anger
Oh, and my arms are burning
And they're open wide
[Outro]
Pointing out the graveyards
I will be the reaper
If you will be the keeper of my heart
I will be the reaper
If you will be the keeper
You are the keeper of this heart
Of my heart
