Beck - Heart Is a Drum lyrics

[Beck - Heart Is a Drum lyrics]

Free as a driving wheel
Circling around your iron will see-
Only what you feel
Keeps you turning when you’re standing still

You tried to run from trouble when it comes
You follow the drum
Keeping time with everyone

High as the light of day
Falling down across your lost highway

Why does it hurt this way?
To come so far to find
They've closed the gates?

You’ve lost your tongue when you
Fall from the pendulum your heart is a drum
Keeping time with everyone

Everyone if they drown from the undertow
Need to find someone
To show me how to play it slow
And just let it go

Your eyes get stung by the
Rays of the sinking sun you follow the drum
Keeping time with everyone

Going, "beat, beat, beat"
It’s beating me down
"Beat, beat, beat, beat"
It’s beating me down day after day
It’s turning me round
Till all my days are drowning out
