Michael Cormier-O’Leary – The Tyranny of Our Beating Hearts Lyrics
Artist: Michael Cormier-O’Leary
Song: The Tyranny of Our Beating Hearts
We fell in love
Were you doing me a favor?
Push came to shove
Then you stayed out even later
Were you lost, white dove?
No sign of land?
Looking from above
On top of our tower of sand
I felt lonely but I felt grand
A pillar of salt
Shook by the tyranny of our beating hearts
You up and split
I combed violent dreams for meaning
My therapist
Said it’s only me I’m maiming
Would I call it quits?
It’s gonna hurt
Getting over this
Went sniffing for clues on your shirt
Like a dog for bones in the dirt
The hunt was for not
Dug up the tyranny of our beating hearts
Last time we spoke
I cried into my Old Fashioned
By the glowing
Sixty four-inch flat screen playing
Late-night TV shows
‘Cold Case’ re-runs
We may never know
The extent of the damage done
Traps are laid out for everyone
We fell for them all
Fell for the tyranny of our beating hearts
