Lyrics
Hear Your Heart
Verse I
Said you found yourself and then you ran away
Tangled with the truth too hard to say
Running thru the streets on angry paws
Full of principles without a cause
Can you hear the rhythm without a sound
See what?s behind without turning ?round
Chorus:
Feel yourself falling
Heart your heart calling
For a helping hand
Someone to understand
Verse II
Do you know the ring of something true
Can you leave the party before it?s through
When the moon is new and the stars all dance
Do you hide behind your circumstance
Is you soul in a tumbler with a shot of rye
Waiting for the hours to trickle by
Chorus x2
Bridge:
Are you here to stay or just passing thru
Waiting for the time until it comes to you
In the middle of the night dressed to the ?nines?
The clock ticks away and your body unwinds
All of a sudden got to lay yourself down
Thoughts are on the table and your dreams are on the ground
Listen ?til the silence begins to roar
You?ll find out you don?t need to know anymore
