Uh, uh [sound of taking breath]
[Verse 1]
Take a breath,
Take it deep. ‘Calm yourself’, He says to me
If you play, you play for keeps.
Take the gun and count to three.
Im sweating now,
Moving slow,
No time to think. My turn to go
[Hook]
And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest.
Said I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So, just pull the trigger
[Verse 2]
Say a prayer to yourself
He says ‘close your eyes, sometimes it helps’
And then I get a scary thought
That he’s here — means he’s never lost
And you can see my heart beating.
No, You can see it through my chest.
Said I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
Know that I must pass this test.
So, just pull my trigger
[Bridge]
As my life flashes before my eyes
I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
So many won’t get the chance to say good-bye
But its too late to think of the value of my life
[Hook]
And you can see my heart beating.
No, You can see it through my chest.
Said I’m terrified but I’m not leaving no
know that I must pass this test.
You can see my heart beating.
Oh, You can see it through my chest.
I’m terrified but I’m not leaving no
know that I must pass this test.
So, just pull the trigger
[sound of taking a breath]
[sound of pulling the trigger. Gun shot]
