Her Heart Beats Alone

it is just as i suspected a lonely echo to the sound can't remember where she left it another day down for the count some folk accept the fact she has bought all that she owns and with what little she has left her heart beats alone they hand out prizes to the winners sympathy plaques held out for the rest another night of T.V. dinners where loneliness feeds itself she tries her best to overcome it her thoughts like a broken home feels she's the only one in the running as her heart beats alone never once trusted much in love says it's a drug that doesn't last anyways she could never afford enough if the truth in it be said certainly didn't wish for it the direction her life's been thrown but when it all comes down to it her heart beats alone
