'''"Sacred Heart"''' is the 2nd song on [[Mark Eitzel]]'s 3rd album, 1996’s ''[[60 Watt Silver Lining]]''. In 1998 Eitzel told ''Hearsay'', "I walked into this church and they were playing a piece by Messiaen. It was in the Sacré-Cœur and I was like 'man, this is so cool'. It was on Maundy Saturday and it was really beautiful – it was packed, it was really dark and it was gorgeous. In any major city they'll be playing Messiaen. I had to namecheck him. I have a few of his records. It's really old-fashioned sounding now but it's just beautiful. I just have this one which is basically a series of masses: ''Quartet for the End of Time''. I bought it for the title. I didn't know anything about it, but I knew it was Messiaen playing 'cause I've heard it before."<ref>{{cite web \| url=http://www.hearsaymagazine.co.uk/mark_eitzel/ \| work=Hearsay Magazine \| date=1998 \| author=Pete Pawsey \| title=The Accidental Tourist \| accessdate=June 16, 2017}}</ref>

==Lyrics==
Now I'm out walking on Saturday morning 
without a direction, I'm a dime a dozen, 
a worthless tourist - a walking target 
with his eyes stuck on glue and paper 
no roof to crawl under 
but with a heart full of rain 
a heart full of rain

Full as the clouds 
my throwaway map should throw me away 
and where does it take me 
streets long since flooded 
raindrops and heartbeats 
though Noah doesn't want me 
you won't let me drown

I don't need to see you 
I just need to feel you 
when we make love 
feel you in the dark 
feel you in the future 
when we make love 
Up in heaven do we make 'em burn up 
or do they ignore us, bigger fish to fry 
waiting with the others at the Sacré-Cœur 
many different colors from all over the world 
here in the City of Love 
no one wants me here 
but I remember 
the sweet things we did together 
when we made love

Saturday morning waiting with the others 
listening to Messiaen waiting in the dark 
at the Sacré-Cœur the future doesn't matter 
nothing lasts but the dark 
where we feel love 
track me down and I'll give you 
my pomegranate heart, my throwaway heart 
track me down and stop me 
I'm ripe enough for the terror 
that lies at the center of my heart's desire

I'm always alone, I'm always alone 
I'm always alone, I'm always alone 
and I don't want to be always alone
