You Can See My Heart

Take a breath, take it deep 
Calm yourself, he says to me 
If you play, you play for keeps 
Take a gun, and count to three 
I’m sweating now, moving slow 
No time to think, my turn to go 

[Chorus:] 
And you can see my heart beating 
You can see it through my chest 
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving 
Know that I must pass this test 
So just pull the trigger 

[Verse 2:] 
Say a prayer to yourself 
He says, close you eyes 
Sometimes it helps 
And then I get a scary thought 
That he’s here means he’s never lost 

[Chorus:] 
And you can see my heart beating 
You can see it through my chest 
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving 
Know that I must pass this test 
So just pull the trigger 

[Verse 3:] 
As my life flashes before my eyes 
I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise? 
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye 
But it’s too late to pick up the value of my life 

[Chorus:] 
And you can see my heart beating 
You can see it through my chest 
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving 
Know that I must pass this test 
So just pull the trigger
