I Still Have My Heart Lyrics

On a wind swept field in paradise a demon came, just after dawn

Embers burning on his breath, the growling gale it cued its haunting song

Blackening the sky devoid of mercy in its eye, it cast the spawn

Fiercely fanning flames upon my refuge did it claim, 'till it was gone

And oh, I feel all alone in the dark

Yet I'm reminded of the light I can spark

I still have my heart

I'm still breathing

The flames they will forge my art

And here's where I'll start

Though I'm grieving

I faithfully can impart

I still have my heart

In a flash it stole away the hillside where I used to pray for calm

Memories of childhood dreams, the pictures that I long to see are gone

Anger stirs inside of me, the embers of their mockery prolong

Instead of casting blame and cursing politician's names I'll write this song

And oh, I feel so alone in the dark

But I'm reminded of the light I can spark

I still have my heart

I'm still breathing

The flames they will forge my art

And here's where I'll start

Though I'm grieving

I faithfully can impart

I still have my heart
