Between Heartbeats

I fill my lungs with wasted air
And breathe out magic words
No one hears the last hurrah
But they claim to be listening

To the sound between heartbeats
Ringing out, loud and clear
In your head, singing you to sleep
Tomorrow's gonna bring you down

You fill your lungs with bated breath
And breathe out empty words
You've everything left to say
But no one is paying attention

To the sound between heartbeats
Ringing out, loud and clear
In your head, singing you to sleep
Tomorrow's gonna bring you down

Down where you belong
With your feet on the ground
And your head in the clouds
Come down, down where you belong
Keep you ear to the ground, sing it loud
'Til your lungs are burning out

It's the sound between heartbeats
Ringing out, loud and clear
In your head, singing you to sleep
Tomorrow's gonna bring you down
