Fatal Beating

What's that lying in the leaves so still?

An empty shell of self

I'm all alone and dying

It's just a fatal beating of my heart

Another fatal beating of my heart

When you look into my eyes you see

A shattered me, you see

And if you listen very close you'll hear

A muffled scream

A dream you never want to visit

It's just a fatal beating of my heart

Another fatal beating of my heart

Oh love, oh love. Why did you go?

Oh love, oh love. Why did you die?

Oh love, oh love why did you go?

Oh love, you've beaten me. Oh love

What's that floating in the stream?

It seems a broken dream

It bleeds for promises forgotten

It's just a fatal beating of my heart

Another fatal beating of my heart

What's that lying in the road ahead?

Could it be our love?

I guess you tried to hit the brakes too late

It's dead weight, my fate

You drag beneath your tires

It's just a fatal beating of my heart

Another fatal beating of my heart

Oh love, oh love. Why did you go?

Oh love, oh love. Why did you die?

Oh love, oh love why did you go?

Oh love, you've beaten me. Oh love

No chances I'll survive it

It's just a fatal beating of my heart
