Lyrics:
When The Heart Stops

Why did the sun come up today
Nobody wants to see this anyway
Hot, burnin' ashes in the dust
Long lost remains of what used to be us

How could there be music on
When we got another brother gone
And I don't think there's words that we could to say
How it feels to watch everything taken away

CHORUS:
I want out of the sin
That sits on my skin
The sounds of the glock
The screams on the block
Just one more body in a box
This is what it sounds like
When the heart stops

Watchin' birds, and wishin' I could fly
There's no way out, I can't even find the sky
What you see is never what you get
When they're squeezin' all the life that you have left

How could there be stars tonight
How can this wrong ever be made right
I don't know if God listens when I pray
But I'm on my knees, hopin' He hears what I say
