though it may be aching, its still alive--just as you are
beat by beat it is there, keeping your flame aglow
without it, every moment of you wouldn't be here
listen now; it will guide you to the places you're meant to be
though it may be tough to believe, it says everything for you
word by word it tells you; feel the messages it gives
without them, every lesson wouldn't mean a thing to you
listen now; it may be just an organ of tissue encased in bones and flesh
but i trust you to see the bigger meaning, one deeper than simple science
day by day it wakes you; be grateful to feel the sun every morning anew
without it, your heart-- everything in life would have no meaning and no sense
so listen, listen closely--- inbetween the beats you will find the whispers
do not let them go unheard, for they hold everything you need; listen to your heart
