Take me home

This heartbeat must be beating for something
The pain and the inconsistent rhythm
If I’m a guitar, folks must be the string.

Outside, you are nothing short of a fling
Tears, joy, hate, emotions can be hidden
This heartbeat must be beating for something.

How long can any survive from a sting?
Leave the ex, you can’t read this algorithm
If I’m a guitar, folks must be the string.

Save yourself the trouble of sand skiing
Play every card on deck but the victim’s
This heartbeat must be beating for something

Dance not, but pay attention to the ring
And always remember this was written
If I’m a guitar, folks must be the string.

Never attempt without feeling the zing
I made the mistake and fell for Kristin
This heart beat must be beating for something
If I’m a guitar, folks must be the string.
