Lyrics & Translation

[English]

This is Gospel for the fallen ones

Locked away in permanent slumber

Assembling their philosophies

From pieces of broken memories

Oh Woah-oh

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

Oh Woah-oh

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

The gnashing teeth and criminal tounges

Conspire against the odds

But they haven't seen the best of us yet

If you love me let me go

If you love me let me go

Cause these words are knives that often leave scars

The fear of falling apart

And truth be told I never was yours

The fear, the fear of falling apart

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

This is Gospel for the vagabonds

Ne'er-do-wells and insufferable bastards

Confessing their apostasies

Led away by imperfect impostors

Oh Woah-oh

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

Oh Woah-oh

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

Don't try to sleep through the end of the world

And bury me alive

Cause I won't give up without a fight

If you love me let me go

If you love me let me go

...

Cause these words are knives that often leave scars

The fear of falling apart

And truth be told I never was yours

The fear, the fear of falling apart

The fear of falling apart

...

The fear, the fear of falling apart

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

The fear of falling apart

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

The fear of falling apart

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

The fear of falling apart

(This is the beat of my heart This is the beat of my heart)

The fear of falling apart

...
