Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It's not time to be open just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forgetBe still my beating heart
Or I'll be taken for a fool
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my faceI've been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me soI sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heartBe still my beating heart
You must learn to stand your ground
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my faceI've been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heartNever to be wrong
Never to make promises that break
It's like singing in the wind
Or writing on the surface of a lakeAnd I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
Struggle to avoid any help at handI sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heart
