"What Happens To A Heart" lyrics

"What Happens To A Heart"

Silent is the light that rises from the night
When wrong today is right tomorrow
I waited for a sound that could turn it all around
An answer that for ages was nowhere to be found

Now I know what happens to a heart
When all it ever does is hurt
It wants a chance to step out of the dark
But ends up buried in the dirt

I would stay at home, but I can't be alone
Through darkness will I roam forever?
I walk the street to find a dream to stand behind
But all I see are tangled troubles I can't unbind

Now I know what happens to a heart
When all it ever does is hurt
It wants a chance to step out of the dark
But ends up buried in the dirt

Counting and cursing every cruel new day
Wishing that I couldn't say

Now I know what happens to a heart
When all it ever does is hurt
It wants a chance to step out of the dark
But ends up buried in the dirt

Now I know what happens to a heart
When all it ever does is hurt
It wants a chance to step out of the dark
And ends up buried in the dirt
