"Heart-Shaped Glasses (When The Heart Guides The Hand)" is the sixth track on the 2007 release Eat Me, Drink Me.
RockMag describes it as "a compulsive, hypnotic and almost militaristic rhythm balances out the tempo. One thinks of the sound of Walk In Line by Joy Division transported to the 21st century and boosted by a demonic sound. Some synths are subtlety placed in the song, recalling the 80’s. The song is ultra-repetitive and puts one in mind of both Violent New Breed and Shotgun Messiah (the latter Tim Skold is an ex-member of). The bassist asserts his domination over the composition and mixes it in with undeniable talent against the desperate voice of the God of Fuck. Towards the end of the song a broken toy box precipitates the songs and hurls the listener into the abyss. When The Heart Guides The Hand will be the future genocide, ready to tear into goth club dance floors in the near future." It has a running time of 5:00.

Lyrics
She reminds me of the one in school When I was cutting and she was dressed in white And I couldn't take my eyes off her But that's not what I took off that night And she will never cover up what we did with her dress, no She said, "kiss me, it'll heal but it won't forget" "kiss me, it'll heal but it won't forget" I don't mind you keeping me on pins and needles If I could stick to you and you could stick me, too Don't break, don't break my heart And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses Little girl, little girl you should close your eyes That blue is getting me high Making me low She reminds of the one I knew that Cut-up the negatives of my life I tried to take my hands off her She wouldn't let me be anywhere but inside I don't mind you keeping me on pins and needles If I could stick to you and you could stick me, too Just don't break, don't break my heart And I won't break your heart-shaped glasses Little girl, little girl you should close your eyes That blue is getting me high Making me low
