Pound To the Rhythm of My Heart

Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) You pushed me to drink the love potion (for many years) You let me go and I was rolling away in the death cart Now, I’m hearing the echoes of commotion (in my ears) Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) Take a breath, look at me…don’t you see my misery? The scent of death – I smell the odor seeping out of your mouth… I cover my nose…I’m feeling down, sucking up my emotional debris I am not a coward and I am not scared of you – you made me love you I’m through with you…I gave up on you – you made me weep tears of rue Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) I’d like to know why you do the things you do I understand addiction – I’ve been through it too I’d like to say before I depart from your arms I will not…I will not…fall victim to your charms Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… Take a breath, look at me…don’t you see my misery? You broke my young heart apart…take heart… The scent of death – I smell the odor seeping out of your mouth… I cover my nose…I’m feeling down, sucking up my emotional debris Do you even see the tears rolling out of my eyes? Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) You really think that I’m a weakling? Didn’t you see my triumphantly soar? (I don’t feel sorry for you…you attention whore – why were you the one I adore?) I am not a coward and I am not scared of you – you made me love you I know my heart is breaking bit by bit, but I’m stronger that I was before (I’m not sore anymore – I don’t love you anymore…you hurt me to the core, but I opened a new door) I’m through with you…I gave up on you – you made me weep tears of rue Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3) Why am I so indecisive? I should’ve dropped you in the nearest trash bin long ago But I’ll forget and forgive the past and heal my brokenhearted soul – I’ll pull out the bad tooth WHY AM SO FOOLISHLY IN LOVE WITH YOU? I don’t even know where the wicked wind do blow But, I know for a fact that you’ll never meet me eye to eye and tell me the truth Pound to the rhythm of my heart…my heart… (oooh…oooh…x3)
