Editors – Formaldehyde lyrics

Would you butcher my love
To understand it?
To know where it lies,
Cut a hole in my heart.

Fill a hole in your life,
I'm yours to dissect.
Now does every heartbeat,
Burn a white heat in your blood?

Formaldehyde.

The tissue and bone my soul has on loan
Begs to be near you.
Are you listening carefully?
Then we shall begin.

Now does every heartbeat,
Burn a white heat in your blood?
I hope it doesn't matter,
I hope we swim up out of this flood.

Of formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde, (Until the end of time)
Formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde. (My formaldehyde)

Smother my love, entertain it.
My mind's gonna wander,
Are you listening carefully?
Then we shall begin.

Now does every heartbeat,
Burn a white heat in your blood?
I hope it doesn't matter,
I hope we swim up out of this flood.

Of formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde, (Until the end of time)
Formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde. (My formaldehyde)

I'm lost to a love that's a mile wide,
Drowned in a bath of formaldehyde.

Now does every heartbeat,
Burn a white heat in your blood?
I hope it doesn't matter,
I hope we swim up out of this flood.

Of formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde, (Until the end of time)
Formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde. (My formaldehyde)
Formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde, (Until the end of time)
Formaldehyde, (Never let you go)
Formaldehyde. (My formaldehyde)

I'm lost to a love that's a mile wide,
Drowned in a bath of formaldehyde.

I'm lost to a love.
