Heartbeat Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Leonard put on his sunglasses, and he dialed the telephone
Left a message with his loved ones
Don't wait up, I won't be home
He scribbled on some hotel station
Every now you see me, now you don't
His put his money in a briefcase, and he gave it to the man
Who took it to the Cayman Islands, and he buried it in the sand
So when the hackers hacked the system
He'll be on the beach with a Mai Tai in his hand
Oh, but thats alright
Yeah, that's ok
When it gets too tired
Gonna slip away
You got the money
You got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, til' your dying day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Well the devils in the details, as the details start to leak
So it is as what's predicted, you can feel it on the streets
There ain't no silver in the bank vault
There's just paper where the money used to be
Even god ain't gonna fix it
You got here all on your own
You bet the president is sweating, or Russia's blowing up the phone
Deny, deny everything
But still, let's throw that rabid dog a bone
Oh, but thats alright
Yeah, that's ok
When it gets too tired
Gonna slip away
You got the money
You got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, til' your dying day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Away
Well there's gonna be a new day
Said the man with the red face
With his finger on a button, as he hums Amazing Grace
And he ponders the eternal, on his private jet
As he heads off into space
You got the money
You got the fame
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, til' your dying day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
You got the money
When you see me comin', you'll know my name
Hide in the shadows, til' your dying day
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Heartbeat away
Revelation's a heartbeat away
Heartbeat away, yeah
