In suspects, at best, I never want an answer, but I always guess Don't speak up when I'm running Don't slow down when I'm asleep 'Cause I wanna forget what's in my chest So steady, steady, steady my heartbeat Steady, steady, steady my heartbeat (my heartbeat) You know I tried to keep it on the level A temper change would just bring trouble So steady, steady, steady my heartbeat If it's out of mind, it's out of sight Don't wanna start a conversation with the fear inside Don't speak up when I'm running Don't slow down when I'm asleep 'Cause I wanna forget what's in my chest So steady, steady, steady my heartbeat Steady, steady, steady my heartbeat (my heartbeat) You know I tried to keep it on the level A temper change would just bring trouble So steady, steady, steady my heartbeat I can feel you poundin' on the other side Are you gonna make me hold the wall? Give me my pass, give me one more chance and I'll never feel nothing at all You're comin' on quick like a fire in the wind in the middle of an open field You're burnin' me down but when you finally go out I'll be standin' in the water still So steady, steady, steady my heartbeat Steady, steady, steady my heartbeat (my heartbeat) You know I tried to keep it on the level A temper change would just bring trouble So steady, steady, steady my heartbeat
