Hearts

Oh, our story always starts so promising
And then something will go awry
Yes, something will go awry
What began ideal will simmer down to real
And these heights are not quite so high
No, these heights are not quite so high
Oh, to what do I chose to bind?
Oh, to what do I chose to bind?

Will it break or be embraced?
Be it treasured or laid to waste
Be it pleasure or pain I taste
This is my heart, this is my heart, oh

Now, the storm ensues and I am overcome
Oh, to struggle or be subdued
Oh, to fight or be left to lose
And the choice to leave is mine to give away
But to what do I hold on to?
But to what do I hold on to
Though in pieces I push on through
Oh, to what do I hold on to?
Oh, will it break or be embraced?
Be it treasured or laid to waste
Be it pleasure or pain I taste
This is my heart, this is my heart
When the darkness lies in wait
Or the light promises to break
Be it heaven or hell I face
This is my heart, this is my heart
Oh, the rush goes
And the flame slows
Oh, the wear shows
But do we give way?

Oh, I can never fathom how I stay
Oh, I can never fathom how I stay

Will it break or be embraced?
Be it treasured or laid to waste
Be it pleasure or pain I taste
This is my heart, this is my heart
When the darkness lies in wait
Or the light promises to break
Be it heaven or hell I face
This is my heart, this is my heart
This is my heart
This is my heart
This is my heart
This is my heart
This is my heart
