Artificial Heart

They gave me a test to make me the best that I could be

They knew all along that there was something wrong with me

We picked out a spot and made a hole

Wire and glass and stainless steel

Now I can imagine how I'd feel

I got a new heart

I got a new heart

I got a new heart

I got a new artificial heart

It's not a real heart

It's not a real heart

It's not a real heart

It is a real artificial heart

There's blood on the bed but here in my head I'm feeling fine

It's easy to sleep when I'm not buzzing all the time

So funny the way I was before

Once I was blind but now I see

Once I was him but now he's me

I got a new heart

I got a new heart

I got a new heart

I got a new artificial heart

It's not a real heart

It's not a real heart

It's not a real heart

It is a real artificial heart

You're happy again, I nod and pretend to think it through

I don't need to think at all if I don't care for you

It's not an emergency for me

I look at the walls and they go clear

I cover my eyes and disappear

I got a new heart

I got a new heart

I got a new heart

I got a new artificial heart

It's not a real heart

It's not a real heart

It's not a real heart

It is a real artificial heart
