Well, it's 6AM on a winter day
And it's raining a storm inside
And I'm stepping out to the black stone pavement
From my prison of lonely nights
This life is cold and hard now
These dreams of fire burned out
You bruised my pride, but somehow
I'll make it through, babe, I know I'll find a way, yeah
So savage the heart that beats in you
I can hear the laughter
So savage the heart that beats in you
And that's all that matters
You've won the game
By how much you really know
As I walk alone on these empty streets
With the pain of the past still strong
Well, I can still see you there drunk and laughing
Laying in my best friend's arms
This life is cold and dark now
These dreams of fire burned out
My hope is lost, but somehow
I've gotta be brave, I know I'll find a way, Yeah
So savage the heart that beats in you
I can hear the laughter
So savage the heart that beats in you
And that's all that matters
You better hide your shame
Look down deep inside your soul
Well, the bonds you broke them, all the trust we had
And the moonlight promise when we first met
Well, I know there's justice, you're gonna get yours too
Some night you'll look back and wish that I was still there
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh, baby
Well, someday your heart will break down
But I just won't care and you'll cry out and say
So savage the heart that beats in you
I can hear the laughter
So savage the heart that beats in you
And that's all that matters
So savage the heart that beats in you
I can hear the laughter
So savage the heart that beats in you
And that's all that matters
You're gonna call my name on a cold dark night
You'll ask forgiveness but I won't be there
For your savage heart
