Coração Noturno

My heart beats slow
Somehow like a tambourine
Marking my feelings
Withholding my despair
Like news in the wind
Rushing through my hair
My heart beats slow
My heart beats clear
Somehow like a hammer
In a way unparalleled
Sealing my helplessness
Within a tide without bond
Within a sickness without cure
My heart beats clear
My heart beats quiet
Somehow like a stream
Meandering through a desert
Bleeding through my visage
Revealing my contempt
Within a covered wound
My heart beats so quiet

My heart beats black
Like a song without a theme
Like a snake mid-lunge
Shattering my tranquility
Licking like a whip
Nocturne like a bat
My heart beats black
Licking like a whip
Nocturne like a bat
My heart beats black
Licking like a whip
Nocturne like a bat
My heart beats black
