you tried to kill me
how could I forget that
you're still trying
you may never stop

you took my heart
and threw it out the window
ran it over with my car
and buried it with my dog

but it's still beating
the dog is dead
my heart's still beating
the car is gone
my heart's still beating
you hid my world
my heart's still beating
the music's gone
my heart's still beating
you keep my kids away from me
my heart's still beating
you destroyed me where no one can see
my heart's still beating
I don't know where you are today
all that matter you took away
there's nothing new for me to say
music won't play
love won't stay
but come what may
my heart's still beating

you tried to kill me
my heart's still beating
close your eyes, you don't have to see
my heart's still beating
pretend I never existed
and tell our children lies
but the truth still lives somewhere
behind your vacant eyes

as long as your heart's still beating
you will heart this song
as long as your heart's still beating
you will know you are wrong
as long as your heart's still beating
you'll know where you belong
as long as your heart's still beating
as long as your heart's still beating
as long as your heart's still beating
you'll hear this song

you cursed us when you denied this blesing
now you'll always be second guessing
what if you had not denied me
what if you had really tried me
what if you stayed here inside me
you would know
truth that would never go
love that would always grow
as long as your heart's still beating

but it's still beating
the dog is dead
your heart's still beating
the car is gone
your heart's still beating
you hid my world
your heart's still beating
the music's gone
your heart's still beating
you keep my kids away from me
your heart's still beating
you destroyed me where no one can see
your heart's still beating
I don't know where you are today
no matter whatever you do
no matter where you ever go
nothing is real
you can not feel
but still you know
your heart's still beating

and when you're dead
laying cold and alone
will your spirit make amends
will you know who your friends have been?
maybe you're hoping
that eternity
has no consciousness
or conscience or awareness
maybe you believe
there is no happiness
but as long as your heart's still beating
you will feel the doubt
as long as your heart's still beating
truth will try to come out...

as long as your heart's still beating
you will heart this song
as long as your heart's still beating
you will know you are wrong
as long as your heart's still beating
you'll know where you belong
as long as your heart's still beating
as long as your heart's still beating
as long as your heart's still beating
you'll hear this song
