Be Still, My Beating Heart Lyrics by Denni Ian

The Sad Saint of South End

2020

I woke to the sound of a moth
Smashing its head against the light bulb
I told myself that I could hear it cry
, cursing the father
And the lover it never found
I walk and I walk
Can you tell me if I’m far enough out?
I went to the grand hotel on the mountain top
Where secret lovers meet to call each other out
In the lobby there I met a shepherd
He only had one eye to go with his two-headed soul
I asked him if he could lead me out
Of this cruеl season of despair
That they call summеrtime
Be still, my beating heart
Cause there is no true or false
Be still, my beating heart
Cause it’s either love or it’s not
I dragged my soul to an orgy
Where the olive trees are withered
I just wanted to inquire about the architect
Behind the formless angles that I’ve been dancing with
I'm at the place where the sun is stuck in the sky, am I far enough out
Now that I’m so worn out, pretending that I’m no longer are caring for the end
I’m thinking about the pond in the forest
Where a woman once went to drown
But by the time I got there myself
The pond was overflowing with old ideas of a savage god
