Lonely Skankin' Heart

[Verse] Drowned in the echoes can't find no peace Heart's a drum machine without release Down on the corner where the shadows meet Dancing with my demons in the empty street [Verse 2] Trumpet calls but the walls they stand Heartbeat syncopated shaky hands Skankin' through the fog feelin' fine Lonely tune echoing down the line [Chorus] Lost in the rhythm of a broken heart Skank steady doo-wop it's a brand new start Melodies collide I can't tell us apart Singin' lonely skankin' heart [Verse 3] Shattered dreams on a cracked sidewalk Gravel in my soul and the street lamp stalks Sweet serenades from a bygone age But this hurt's too raw for history's page [Bridge] Horns cry out with a soulful plea Rhythms break the chains of what's meant to be Harmony in chaos the truth sets free Dance this lonely skank with me [Chorus] Lost in the rhythm of a broken heart Skank steady doo-wop it's a brand new start Melodies collide I can't tell us apart Singin' lonely skankin' heart
