Dear Heartbeat Lyrics

Dear heartbeat, I need something to soothe me
Dear heartbeat, medicate a dose
Sweet distress, touch and presence not welcome
Sweet distress, now it's time to go

Those mornings, when the burden absorbs me
Those mornings, everything's on pause
Hours go by, it continues to match me
Hours go by, no constraints or cause

My time is not my own, one night is all I want
This fear is all I know, just one night alone...
