Still My Heart

Short of breath
no problem
thanks to breathing technique fiery in the chest
cool in the head
I refuse to deal with
the mess you produce
come to your senses and Iʻll hear
is this an attempt to leave me? are you forcing me to sleep?

I want you to be still my heart
how come we drift so far apart
if I screwed up I swear by my heart Iʻll be good!
but please be still my heart

normally I can handle you
but now you scare me
Iʻm obsessed with your conformity
have I disappointed you along the way? have I been too careless, too afraid?
Iʻm lifeʻs eternal student to hell, Iʻm so sick of it

I want you to be still my heart
how come we drift so far apart
if I screwed up I swear by my heart Iʻll be good!
but please be still my heart

you are the music I sing
you are my rhythm, my passion
and the valid connection
to you watching over me from beyond I was unattentive, I suddenly see surpressing your needs
but Iʻm begging you please
give me a chance
and I let you love, rebel and grieve

I want you to be still my heart
how come we drift so far apart
if I screwed up I swear by my heart Iʻll be good!
but please be still my heart
