Heartsounds

Lyrics

What if it’s all I can offer?
What if my life was just meant to be this?
What if through thick and thin and the highs and lows,
There’s just nothing left to resist?
I’ve found my true calling
And it’s never sounded so fucking good
I know this one part of my life will keep me breathing
As long as I’m part of this earth

For years I’ve seen things come and go
(But every night I dream the same sounds)
Through friends gone and battles I’ve lost
(I’ve learned to follow the song inside me)

One day will come when the stars in the sky
Will align to show that I
Can make something of these notes I’ve been hearing in my sleep
I’ll show you the song inside me.

I’ve been reduced to these chords that
Flow from my hands and capture my thoughts.
They take them prisoner, they don’t let them escape
Until these thoughts… these songs, are resolved.
And nothing will come of
My days and my nights till these notes all seem right
I’ll lie awake and dream of a time
When my voice will be heard and
The sound will bring meaning to my life

I’ve found my true calling
And it sounds so fucking good
I know these notes I’ve been hearing
Will keep me breathing if I’m part of this earth…
