[Verse 1]
I walk the streets with a rhythm in my step
Trying to outrun every regret I kept
The world moves fast, and I move right along
Hiding the truth behind a steady song
I put on a face that looks like I’m alright
But underneath the surface, it’s a different kind of night
Every step I take feels lighter than it seems
But inside my chest, there’s a storm that never sleeps
[Pre‑Chorus]
The tempo rises, pushing through the noise
Drowning out the voice that brings me back to all the wrong choices
I’m moving forward, but I’m carrying the past
Trying to make this feeling last
[Chorus]
Got a heavy heart and a fast beat
Dancing through the trouble, moving off my feet
It feels like freedom, but it’s just disguise
For all the hurt I keep behind my eyes
Heavy heart and a fast beat
Running from the things that cut so deep
I know it’s chaos, I know it’s not complete
But I keep going — heavy heart, fast beat…
[Verse 2]
The lights are flashing, the speakers turn it up
Trying to fill the space where the silence used to stop
Every melody wraps around the pain
Like it can make the bad things fade away again
I laugh too loud, I stay out way too late
Anything to stop the memories from taking their place
It’s a cycle I know, but I can’t break free
When the rhythm feels like the only company
[Pre‑Chorus]
The tempo rises, pushing through the noise
Drowning out the voice that brings me back to all the wrong choices
I’m moving forward, but I’m carrying the past
Trying to make this feeling last
[Chorus]
Got a heavy heart and a fast beat
Dancing through the trouble, moving off my feet
It feels like freedom, but it’s just disguise
For all the hurt I keep behind my eyes
Heavy heart and a fast beat
Running from the things that cut so deep
I know it’s chaos, I know it’s not complete
But I keep going — heavy heart, fast beat…
[Bridge]
(Synths swell, beat builds higher, vocals grow more intense)
They say time heals, but it only rearranges
The pain stays the same, just the way it changes
I speed it up so I don’t have to feel
Every single wound that hasn’t had time to heal
One foot in front of the other, don’t look back
Even if the weight is pulling me off track…
[Chorus]
Got a heavy heart and a fast beat
Dancing through the trouble, moving off my feet
It feels like freedom, but it’s just disguise
For all the hurt I keep behind my eyes
Heavy heart and a fast beat
Running from the things that cut so deep
I know it’s chaos, I know it’s not complete
But I keep going — heavy heart, fast beat…
[Outro]
(Beat gradually slows, synths soften into a gentle pulse)
Yeah…
Heavy heart…
Fast beat…
Moving on…
Even when it hurts…
Heavy heart…
Fast beat…
