"Heartbeat Away" lyrics
"Heartbeat Away"
Leonard put on his sunglasses
And he dialed the telephone
Left a message with his loved ones
"Don't wait up, I won't be home"
He scribbled on some hotel stationary
"Now you see me, now you don't"
He put his money in a briefcase
And he gave it to the man
Who took it to the Cayman Islands
And he buried it in the sand
So when the hackers hacked the system
He'll be on the beach with a Mai Tai in his hand
Oh, but that's alright
Yeah, that's okay
When it gets too tight
Gonna slip away
You got the money, you got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, 'til your dyin' day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Well the devils in the details
As the details start to leak
So it is as what's predicted
You can feel it on the streets
There ain't no silver in the bank vaults
There's just paper where the money used to be
Even God ain't gonna fix this
You got here all on your own
You bet the president is sweating
While Russia's blowing up the phone
Deny, deny everything
But still, let's throw that rabid dog a bone
Oh, but that's alright
Yeah, that's okay
When it gets too tight
Gonna slip away
You got the money, you got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, 'til your dyin' day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Heartbeat away, heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away, heartbeat away
Revelation's a heartbeat away-ay
"Well there's gonna be a new day"
Said the man with the red face
With his finger on a button
As he hums Amazing Grace
And he ponders the eternal
On his private jet as he heads off into space
You got the money, you got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, 'til your dyin' day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
You got the money, you got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, 'til your dyin' day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Heartbeat away, heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away, heartbeat away
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Heartbeat away, yeah
