One Beat from a Heartbreak

I've been beat down, set up, trampled

Dust in my mouth, I, I just wanna go home

Home, just wanna go home

I lost and found and then I lost it

Once shy, twice burned by ones I trusted

Oh, oh by ones I trusted

And none too close for comfort

One beat from a heartbreak

One step from a fall

One letdown from giving up

And not trying at all

Left my spirit tonight

Let's go back on time

And I can catch my breath from living

One beat, one beat from a heartbreak

From a heartbreak

I used to run on reckless abandon

Fresh face, so creed, hot like a cannon

Oh, oh hot like a cannon

And it's a long way down from there to here

One beat from a heartbreak

One step from a fall

One letdown from giving up

And not trying at all

Left my spirit tonight

Let's go back in time

And I can catch my breath from living

One beat, one beat from a heartbreak

From a heartbreak

One beat, one beat from a heartbreak

From a heartbreak

Tears gonna run

Thieves gonna try and try to steal

O darling don't let go

Be still and know

What you can and cannot control

One beat from a heartbreak

One step from a fall

One letdown away from giving up

And not trying at all

I left my spirit tonight

Let's go back in time

So I can catch my breath from living

One beat, one beat from a heartbreak

From a heartbreak

One beat, one beat from a heartbreak

From a heartbreak

One beat, one beat, one beat
