Every little beat of your heart, you get a little closer to me You've never been so happy since I've been around I don't want to tear your world apart But that's how it's going to be Your head's in the sky but I'm underground Words come slow to me Silence sees thee But the world spins 'round and 'round My heart is breaking The mess I'm making Every little beat of your heart You're painting a picture of me You put me on a pedestal I can't climb down Every little beat of my own takes me further from you I've run out of heaven and I'm closing down There's an actor in this town And he follows you around He gets his lines right every time But his heart is breaking He's tired of faking Every little beat of your heart You're painting a picture of me You put me on a pedestal I can't climb down Every little beat of my own takes me further from you I've run out of heaven and I'm closing down.
