Lyrics and translation
Original
I tremble.
They're gonna eat me alive.
If I stumble, they're gonna eat me alive.
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer.
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender.
Come take my pulse, it paces on a runaway train.
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer.
If we're still alive, my regrets are few.
If my life is mine, what shouldn't I do?
I get wherever I'm going.
I get whatever I need.
While my blood's still flowing, and my heart's still beating like a hammer. Beating like a hammer.
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender.
Come take my pulse, it paces on a runaway train.
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer. Beating like a hammer.
If we're still alive, my regrets are few.
If my life is mine, what shouldn't I do?
I get wherever I'm going.
I get whatever I need.
While my blood's still flowing, and my heart's still beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer. I tremble.
They're gonna eat me alive.
If I stumble, they're gonna eat me alive.
Can you hear my heart?
Beating like a hammer.
Beating like a hammer. Beating like a hammer. Beating like a hammer.
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer.
