This is gospel for the fallen ones
Locked away in permanent slumber
From pieces of broken memories
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart [x2]
The gnashing teeth and criminal tongues conspire against the odds
But they haven't seen the best of us yet
‘Cause these words are knives and often leave scars
And truth be told, I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart [x2]
This is gospel for the vagabonds,
Ne'er-do-wells and insufferable bastards
Led away by imperfect impostors
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart [x2]
Don't try to sleep through the end of the world
'Cause I won't give up without a fight
‘Cause these words are knives and often leave scars
And truth be told, I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Oh, the fear, the fear of falling apart
[x4]
(Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my heart)
