The Beat of My Heart

All it takes is a man
To have a gun in his hand
To make me surrender my fortune
And to make his life grand
But all of the times
I thought I'd have a last stand
He beat himself unconscious and I didn't have a chance

All of the times
That I have been let down
It's made my heart much stronger so I don't let it out
I think that it's time
To prove to everyone
That you can't take my life
By beating my heart

Show all your friends
That you can't
Survive the end
When it's dictated by the beat of my heart
Try to escape
By getting a plane
You can try
I'll show how plain it is that you simply can't
You can't escape
Even if you travel far
You can't retreat
From the deafening beat of my heart

Every single time
That I've gone outside
I've noticed that my skin seems to burn in the light
I don't know why
Maybe I've lost my mind
But everyone looks like I've committed a crime
Am I a vampire
Not sure, but I might
Bite your neck if you get on my bad side
Do you want a fight
I'll make you take flight
You'll exit the atmosphere and be out sight

All of the times
That I have been let down
It's made my heart much stronger so I don't let it out
I think that it's time
To prove to everyone
That you can't take my life
By beating my heart

Show all your friends
That you can't
Survive the end
When it's dictated by the beat of my heart
Try to escape
By getting a plane
You can try
I'll show how plain it is that you simply can't
You can't escape
Even if you travel far
You can't retreat
From the deafening beat of my heart

I think that I know
Why people seem to go
Out of their way just to cross the road
When I approach
I seem to show
The deepest sense of hatred to the ones that I loathe
I think that I know
Why people seem to go
Out of their way just to cross the road
When I approach
I seem to show
The deepest sense of hatred to the ones that I loathe

All of the times
That I have been let down
It's made my heart much stronger so I don't let it out
I think that it's time
To prove to everyone
That you can't take my life
By beating my heart

Show all your friends
That you can't
Survive the end
When it's dictated by the beat of my heart
Try to escape
By getting a plane
You can try
I'll show how plain it is that you simply can't
You can't escape
Even if you travel far
You can't retreat
From the deafening beat of my heart
