I've walked the longest road
Done what I've been told and I
Almost lost my mind

I had to toe the line
Pretended I was fine, but still
Clinging to the wire
I went down on my luck dealing w the devil
Betrayed a little angel in white
I hung around the gates of hell and pried
But once I looked inside I realized where I belong
Got to set things right or this might be my final home
And just as time went by
One day it crossed my mind that I
Was free to find my way

Is that my heartbeat?

And I made sure as I grew old
For any fools out for gold I left one stone unturned
I went down on my luck and made my inner angel
Fight that little devil inside
I stood outside of heaven's gate and cried

And once I looked inside I realized where I belong
Got to set things right
And be there when my time has come

In a gleam of hope and a heartbeat
I turned away in time... That's my heartbeat!
From the fool's gold, the empty show that they call divine
And I don't believe it until I see it fly
I know it's not too late to draw the line

Cause I just looked inside and realized where I belong
Wanna set things right and finally see where I went wrong

Once I looked inside I realized where I belong
And there's still time to find the place where I call home
Hell or heaven can wait
