it beats to a different drum

and i thought if i marched then they would come

to love me more than i thought i knew

but they didn't just you

now i know things have been said unkind

you must understand if only i could rewind

i would but i can't and now my heart beats alone



my hair it feels different without you here

words feel different in my ear

my spotlight dims and the world turns

and all my heart begins to burn

i never wanted you to let me go

and i am sure you love me still so

so who i am to hang on to?




Some beautiful angel who slept so sweetly

some girl who fell in love deeply

and she is the one of this i am sure

every heartbeat is an overture

and when i am thinking she is not here

i don;t know which way to steer

i am lost without you



my head is useless

my heartbeat is weak

my dreams are worthless

even as we speak

she turned me inside out and confused my soul

why aren't i whole?




I wish she could only see the marching band

that my heart plays for her by her very hand

but no, alas, alack, i am not worth what she feels

inside outside cart-*******-wheels

i wish she could see her beauty defined

no move made is misaligned

sweet surprise my beautiful




so as i sit here and my heart does weep

i wonder what song does feel its beat

she left me now inside a battle of will

of hurt and pain and yet still

i fight till i am bleeding from the tears in my eyes

i know she hates, i can feel her despise

and who am i to you




my heart it beats to a different tune

one that moves in the beauty of you

tho, i am scared to admit she is long gone by now

she made a pact with her head, a sacred vow

and to whom does her heart march, which soulful song?

and when did i ever feel so out of time, so wrong

my music beats in you....
