lyrics

When the sky is getting light
And you’ve hardly slept
And your hands are clenched from holding your hurt
Too close to your chest

When it feels like everything inside you
Is falling apart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart

Do you turn into a hermit?
Do you turn away from grace?
Do you turn the mirrors to the wall
To hide from your own face?

Do you turn to stone when you’re alone
Abandoned and apart?
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart

When the future doesn’t beckon
And the past only betrays
And the present is a prison
Where you tally up the days

And you can’t imagine getting up
And making a new start
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart

Tell yourself time heals all wounds
Remind yourself it’s true
The damage that you’ve taken
Won’t be the death of you

And don’t you fret that in you yet is
Cupid’s poison dart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
It’s just your heart
