My Poor Beating Heart
Half of a divorce is the courts and the lawyers
And people who profit from pain
Once they get their check, hell, they'll leave you in debt
To suffer a young man's mistakes
You stayed at home when I left on the road
You always met me halfway
Did I make you my world? Was I good to my girls?
Or ruin this life that we made?
For that I'm forever ashamed
I want her to be proud of her name
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Half of divorce is good people, gone boring
But you never saw me that way
It feels so fucked to give it all that you got
And watch your world burn right in your face
For that I'm forever afraid
To love, or be loved, just the same
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Lie perfectly still, and don't move until you can stop the bleeding
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Lie still please, my poor bleeding heart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating
Be still please, my poor beating heart
And people who profit from pain
Once they get their check, hell, they'll leave you in debt
To suffer a young man's mistakes
You stayed at home when I left on the road
You always met me halfway
Did I make you my world? Was I good to my girls?
Or ruin this life that we made?
For that I'm forever ashamed
I want her to be proud of her name
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Half of divorce is good people, gone boring
But you never saw me that way
It feels so fucked to give it all that you got
And watch your world burn right in your face
For that I'm forever afraid
To love, or be loved, just the same
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Keep my head high for my daughter
Let nothing else tear me apart
Lie perfectly still, and don't move until you can stop the bleeding
Be still please, my poor beating heart
Lie still please, my poor bleeding heart
Just place the bill in the safe with my Will
Be still please, my poor beating
Be still please, my poor beating heart
