歌曲名 A Billion Heartbeats(Child of the Parish Remix)

歌手名 Mystery Jets/Child of the Parish

Why does it take a tragedy to make

Our true colors come out

We only feel the life in our limbs

And a heartbeat beneath the skin

When time is runnin' out

But there's love in pain

And comfort in

Suffering feels familiar

Just like a stranger's touch

We've yet to trust

Reaching out to feel

Something real before we turn to dust

Every human has a billion heartbeats

So why do we lie and cheat 'till we're old

And time is up on Earth

Every human has a billion heartbeats

So why do we only speak

In the cold silence between our words

Trapped halfway between wanting to be brave

And feeling scared we'll only stand and stare

What difference will it make picking up the pieces

As another lonely heart breaks but don't despair

'Cause there's love in pain

And comfort in

Suffering feels familiar

It's soft like a stranger's touch

We've yet to trust

Reaching out to feel

Something real before we turn to dust

Every human has a billion heartbeats

So why do we lie and cheat 'till we're old

And time is up on Earth

Every human has but a billion heartbeats

So why do we only speak we only speak

In the cold silence between our words

How do I do I sleep do I lie

Lie and cheat though I try I can't speak

Yeah I try but I can't speak I can't speak
