One lonely, beating heart
A rhythmic, pulsating, hypnotic sound
Draws you into it's misery
Looking to reap discord
In those who don't partake in it's affliction
Have you ever heard the sound of a lonely, beating heart
That is stained with the knowledge of unrequited love
It is the most painful sound one can hear
A sound heard for miles
Heard for years
I hear it
For every breath causes such a heart to resound once more
A ringing throughout my chest, my brain, my ears
For, it is my lonely, beating heart
It is my unrequited love
It is my stain
