Speak Oh Heart

Speak, oh heart!

I'll follow your call anywhere

Give these lungs some fresh air to breathe

And the songs of our fathers to sing

It's early morning and I'm leaving town

So don't be surprised when I'm not around

With such subtle cruelty, you never made an unkind remark

You struck me down and tore out my heart

Bleed old wounds

Remind me of the dangers of standing still

Away with the drudgery

These ruts in the road

Are growing and I'm not yet old

The word left long unspoken shouldn't be spoken at all

An older man's loyalty can equal young passion after all

Ah your cute little hurricane,

Your shot in the dark

It's a disaster when honesty means an unyielding heart

Your disastrous honesty
