Lyrics

I didn't know that you were real
I didn't know that you could feel
But now I'm telling you
Here's what I'm gonna do
Let me put it next to you

I didn't know that you would care
I just assumed that you were there
But now I'm vanishing
Baby accept this thing
Let me put it next to you

And if I took the lid off
You'd recoil straight away
My heart is full of worms
You know it's always been that way

Grow, worms, grow
Inside my heart

Loneliness is the biggest dream
You're not as lonely as you seem
But if this thing should show
You'll be the first to know
When I put it next to you
