Even the Blackest Heart Still Beats Lyrics

Waking up drunk as the sea shouts harder.
Try to wake me up but there's nothing left to say.
I said it all in a distant memory.
Image of a son with an absent father.
Who wouldn't believe it would take its toll on me?
The payback is never ending.
If your mind's made up can it ever change?
A viscious circle.
A halo around the head.
Congratulations.

It seems you've won again.
Maybe this time you'll learn it doesn't change a thing.
If it's war you seek, then seek no more than me.
But even the blackest heart still beats.
Starving for a place to conceal this murder.
Driving just to stay awake with a broken radio.
The voices come again to soothe me.
Crashing in the rain of a wasted summer.
Ever since the clouds derailed all my makeshift confidence.
What a brief, unhappy life.
If your mind's made up, can it ever change?
A viscious circle.
A halo around the head.
Congratulations.
It seems you've won again.
Maybe this time you'll learn it doesn't change a thing.
If it's war you seek, then seek no more than me.
But even the blackest heart still beats.
I can handle lifes discomforts.
Confidence and all is understood.
You're gonna grow up one day.
So light the wick and burn the candle.
Falling over, catching flame to me.
And everyone I know to ashes.
Congratulations.
You finally won today.
Maybe this time you'll learn you're on your own.
Congratulations.
It seems you've won again.
Maybe this time you'll learn it doesn't change a thing.
If it's war you seek, then seek no more than me.
But even the blackest heart still beats.
Yeah, even the blackest heart still beats.
