歌词
O my anxious heart
Why do you beat?
Why do you beat?
O my anxious heart
Why can't you sleep?
Why can't you sleep?
I'm up and at it again
I don't want to just send
Another text to try to fix
A million things on a short list
I don't think that's what you want
I'm sorry if that first was a taunt
I'll do my best to try again
But I get spacey now and then
Speaking of space when did we land?
There's still a gap and man o man
I'm sick of it
And I want to close that distance
I'm hopeful
But the days tick by
I'm thinking if I close my eyes
All my problems will be fixed
But I've realized
O my anxious heart
Why do you beat?
Why do you beat?
O my anxious heart
Why can't you sleep?
Why can't you sleep?
I'm sick of staring at myself
Like some stupid elf on a shelf
Only a terror in the night
Brings neither love nor new light
Perhaps then some day
I'll come down
I'll see you
And we'll both be found
But I'm still in space
And you're on the ground
O my anxious heart
Why do you beat?
Why do you beat?
O my anxious heart
Why can't you sleep?
Why can't you sleep?
What makes me feel this way?
There's so much I want you to say
I'm giving off these subtle cues
I know it isn't fair to you
I want the world
But give you none
When this is over and we're done
Perhaps then we'll see each other for who we are
O my anxious heart
Why can't you beat?
Why can't you beat?
O my anxious heart
Why do you sleep?
Why do you sleep?
I don't pretend to have the answers
I had a dream I rocked this damn verse
Schemes at night are quickly hampered
When daylight shows where the dam burst
I'm here to say this anxious view
That twists our heart left torn in two
Has no sway or hold on you
It has not right to take the truth
You are more than sums of failures
The sum of you a love that's greater
Than all the calls of all the haters
I pray you know you have a savior
And when anxious hearts keep up at night
And dreams of darkness choke the light
Your beating heart is filled with fright
Just know o anxious heart you're mine
O my anxious heart
Why do you beat?
Why do you beat?
O my anxious heart
Why can't you sleep?
Why can't you sleep?
