heart is a drum

Beck

Free as a driving wheel
Circling around your iron will
See only what you feel
Keeps you turning when you're standing still
You try to run from trouble when it comes
You follow the drum keeping time with everyone

High as the light of day
You're falling down across your lost highway
Why does it hurt this way
To come so far to find they've closed the gates?
You've lost your tongue when you fall from the pendulum
Your heart is a drum keeping time with everyone

Everyone hear the drum from the undertow
Need to find someone to show me how to play it slow
And just let it go

Your eyes get stung by the rays of the sinking sun
You follow the drum keeping time with everyone
Going beat beat beat, it's beating me down
Beat beat beat beat, it's beating me down
Day after day, it's turning around
'Til all my days are drowning out
