The Beat Will Make You Go On (Part Two)

You were done

Said you'd had enough

Closed your eyes

Held your aching heart shut

Then it hits

That first little thump

In your chest

Like a hand pulling you up

The beat will make you go on

When you swear that you're over it all

Every drop

Every rise

Every drum

Says you're bigger than every fall

When your hope feels faded

Gone

Listen close

There's a driving song

You can break

You can shake

You can sob

But the beat will make you go on (go on)

Spilled drink

On your brand new shoes

Old pain

In the back of the room

Then a laugh

From a stranger's mouth

You move once

And the hurt walks out

The beat will make you go on

When you swear that you're over it all

Every drop

Every rise

Every drum

Says you're bigger than every fall

When your hope feels faded

Gone

Listen close

There's a driving song

You can break

You can shake

You can sob

But the beat will make you go on (go on)

Hands up

For the tears you lived through (hey!)

Hands up

For the cracks that lit you

Count one

Two

On the scars you've worn

Every step you take

Is a brand new dawn

The beat will make you go on

When you swear that you're over it all

Every drop

Every rise

Every drum

Says you're bigger than every fall

When your hope feels faded

Gone

Listen close

There's a driving song

You can break

You can shake
