C            B            A           G
Hand me your hand let me look in your eyes 
C                         B       A            G
as my last chance to feel human begins to vaporize 
C              B            A              G
maybe it’s the heat in here maybe it’s the pressure

you ought to head for the exits the sooner the better

I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam 
C B A G
And no in her right mind would make my home her home
F
My heart is an autoclave
F
My heart is an autoclave

When I try to open up to you I get completely lost
Houses swallowed by the earth windows thick with frost
And I reach deep down within but the pathways twist and turn
And there’s no light anywhere and nothing left to burn

And I am this great unstable mass of blood and foam
And no emotion that’s worth having can call my heart its home
My hearts an autoclave
My hearts an autoclave

I dream't that I was perched atop a throne of human skulls
On a cliff above the ocean howling wind and shrieking seagulls
And the dream went on forever one single static frame
Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name

I am this great, unstable mass of blood and foam 
And no in her right mind would make her home my home
My heart is an autoclave
My heart is an autoclave
