Heart
I can’t hold it back
Yeah, I can’t hold it back
No, I can’t hold it back
I can’t hold it back
Damn it, I can’t hold it back
Ugh, I can’t hold it back
What’s the point of pretending?
What’s the point of all this pain?
What’s the point of pretending?
I can’t keep my heart from breaking
What’s the point of pretending?
What’s the point of all this hurt?
What’s the point of pretending?
I can’t keep my heart from falling apart
What’s the point of pretending, ah
What’s the point of all this pain?
What’s the point of pretending?
I can’t keep my heart from feeling so damn heavy
Tell me, tell me, oh, heart, what’s wrong?
Why can’t my heart just be?
I’m lost in my heart
What’s the reason for this suffering, God?
The struggles are weighing me down, I can’t take it anymore
The pain is dragging me down, I can’t keep it together
The worries are piling up, I’m losing my mind
The fears are creeping in, I can’t escape them
What’s the point of all this suffering?
What’s the point of all this pain?
What’s the point of pretending?
I can’t keep my heart from breaking
Like a struggle
I can’t find peace in this chaos
I can’t find a way to breathe in this heavy world
What’s the reason for this suffering, God?
I’m tired of this suffering, God!
I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of this suffering
What’s the reason for this suffering?
Oh, I can’t hold it back
I swear, Tanba
Oh, I can’t hold it back
I swear, Tanba
I can’t hold it back
I swear, Tanba
Ah ah ah ha, Tanba, I can’t hold it back
Oh, I swear, Tanba
Oh, I swear, Tanba
Oh, I swear, Tanba, ah
Yeah, Tanba, ah ah, I can’t hold it back
Heart, heart, heart, heart...
Yeah, Tanba, I can’t hold it back
