lyrics

THE HEART HAS TO ACHE BEFORE IT LEARNS TO BEAT

WHEN WE ARE HALF COLLAPSED
WE RECOGNIZE THE HEAT
AND IT’S A TRICKLE DOWN
FROM TERRACES TO TERMINUS
THEN THE LIGHT DISPATCHES PROMISE
UNLIKELY AND UNKIND
SO PRECIOUS IN IT’S DARKEST OF CONCEITS
THE HEART HAS TO ACHE BEFORE IT LEARNS TO BEAT….

WHEN YOU BRACE YOURSELF TO JUMP
YOU’LL BE INTERRUPTED
SLOW MOTION SINKS LIKE STONE
IN THE SILT OF SORROW
YOU’RE THE FIRST TO KILL SURVIVAL SKILLS
MALNOURISHED, RANK AND HOPELESS
YOU’RE THE FIRST TO PAINT THE RAPTURE AS DEFEAT,
THE HEART HAS TO ACHE BEFORE IT LEARNS TO BEAT….
