Heartbeat

I've been walking through the echoes of the crowd Every face a stranger every word too loud Then you came like quiet rain on burning ground I didn't know a heart could make that sound You saw through the walls of the soul I hide You touched the silence I tried to hide And for the first time I felt alive Not to belong but to survive You pull me closer when the world fades out When I'm lost you turn me inside out In your eyes I see the part of me That still believes in what I could be Falling into you You make the darkness feel alright I've been learning how to stand without a scratch How to speak when I'm afraid of the reply The city never listens it just creeps But your voice cuts through it like a dream You taught me love isn't just escape It's the fire that keeps its shape And though the night still calls my name I don't walk the same You pull me closer when the world fades out When I'm lost you turn me inside out In your eyes I see the part of me That still believes in what I could be Falling into you You make the darkness feel alright You pull me closer when the world fades out When I'm lost you turn me inside out In your eyes I see the part of me That still believes in what I could be Falling into you You make the darkness feel alright
