Lyrics:
Hold heart, don't beat so loud
For me keep your calm, as he walks out on you
No tears, don't you come out
If you blind me now I'm defeated
No lips, don't make a sound
Don't let him hear the break in your voice
Hand, let go of his with ease and grace
Don't let him bleed under your nails
Oh Lord, take off Thy crown
You're my King no more
With that verse in a man's hold
Hold heart, don't beat so loud
For me keep your calm, lest he walks out on you
No tears, don't you come out
If you blind me now I am defeated
incredibly unique, sound. touching.
