Tests on My Heart Songtext
von Umbrellas

If they did tests on my heart
I think that maybe they would start believing
All the stories that I tell them
Like how sometimes I can barely breathe
For no apparent reason other than I thought some bad thoughts
These nerves are falling apart
And my fingernails stay short
I keep telling myself "You′ve got to get over yourself"


I don't want you to save me
′Cause what if you did, you'd succeed
And then you would get bored and leave
I'd be back at square one
And that is such a bad place to begin

We sent all of our sins into the sea
And we set it on fire, we′re an island now
I don′t know if I can take the pressure it creates
To be a self-sustaining industry
So we'll tell ourselves we′ve got what it takes
And all we need is a little time to dry off

I don't want you to save me
′Cause what if you did, you'd succeed
And you would leave
I′d be back at square one
And that is such a bad place to begin
