Wild hearts, they say don't break
But mines had all that it can take
It beats itself on these iron walls
And my oh my it's seen it all
It's wearing down on these iron rails
This wild heart makes me old and frail

Wild hearts, they can't be tamed    
That's why they're kept inside a cage
It's survived some wars inside of me  
And my oh my the things it's seen
It keeps the rhythm of my own song
This wild heart won't be caged for long  

My heart has scars,    
But it's on the mend.
It won't break,
But it sure can bend.                              
Take a shot,
Fire away,
Give it all you've got,                  
But wild hearts don't break.
