lyrics

Heartbeats
by Sarah Farthing

I knew you’d always had it--
A little graveyard in your heart
It's oh, so revealing,
Desperate legacies and thoughtless starts,

You’ve thrown it all away before you start.
It’s just a waiting game, and waiting is your art.
You cannot make your own heart beat, love.
You cannot make your own heart beat.

Watch you spin in circles.
No one knows just where you’ll land.
Come in from all night drinking,
The smell of cigarettes is on your hands, yeah.

And you’re trying hard to run before you stand.
It’s just a praying game, and praying is my plan.
You cannot make your own heart beat, love.
You cannot make your own heart beat.

You cannot hold the sky up, love
You cannot hold the sky u-up
You cannot hold the sky up,
You cannot hold the sky,
You cannot hold the sky uuup.

I knew you’d always had it, a little graveyard in your heart.

Sarah Farthing is a "smoke and honey-voices songstress" whose sound nestles into the sweet spot between folk-rock and pop, with just enough swagger to avoid the usual clichés of the female singer-songwriter.
