learn to live with your heart;
a lullaby of ten thousand beating drums
a heart drenched in dark, dripping coal
a beast that knows no dawn
leading your steps to the eye of storm
leaving your footprints greased with ink
i don't know how much burn you could stand
but let the twilight bruise the sky
as long as you stop scorching your own
calamity will pass along with
the dull hum of the loveless cities
the dust will crack
and you will march on
singing the anthem of the beating heart.
