and in a heartbeat   the room turns from water into ice   and in a heartbeat   everything you hear is now suddenly so nice   and in a heartbeat   i can feel us falling closer apart   and in a heartbeat   i feel like the finish line -is just the start      and in a heartbeat   he goes and pulls the trigger   and in a heartbeat   all our lives are just changed forever   and in a heartbeat   i'm the man, she's the beast   and in a heartbeat   your life is gone, may you rest in peace      and can't you recognize that thing in your chest when life is just choking you to death   can't you tell the difference between true love and a screaming freight train   you wanna know the secret to living a full and happy life   it's that -you're not the only one who's drowning,   so am i.      and in a heartbeat   this life just aint enough   and in a heartbeat   your tough cookie, aint so tough   and in a heartbeat   this world it comes crashing through your door   and in a heartbeat   you gotta decide can you take any more?      can't you recognize that thing in your chest when life is just choking you to death   and can't you tell the difference between true love and a screaming freight train   you wanna know the secret to living a full and happy life   it's that you're not the only one who's drowning,   baby -so am i.   (repeat)      and in a heartbeat   this life is just gone.
