“And the last thing I see is my heart,
Still beating,
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of Hell.”

Bat out of Hell (1977), Bat out of Hell (song)
Context: Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
All torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart,
Still beating,
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of Hell.

Bat out of Hell (1977), Bat out of Hell (song)

But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you.

“It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.”

And they're giving off sparks.”
