Every Moment - Beady Belle

White stone and altar, no people anywhere

A marble Madonna watching on the side

Historic names engraved in the floor everywhere

Supernaturally calm on the outside

Outside, she is frozen, rooted to the spot

Inside, she is running down the street

On the outside, quite indifferent, like a mechanized robot

But oh, she feels the thundering of her desperate heartbeat

Every moment happens twice

Inside and outside

Every moment happens twice

Every moment happens twice

Twice

And there are two different histories

And there are two histories

Outside, she can feel his fingers at her breast

Her mind spins around on a carousel

On the outside, she is captured, unable to protest

Inside, a million muscles urging to repel

Suddenly, outside, the world begins to shake

Crumbling walls and cracking pillars fall apart

As the world collapses over her, she’s calm and wide awake

Shedding tears of relief from the bottom of her heart

Every moment happens twice

Inside and outside

Every moment happens twice

Every moment happens twice

Twice

And there are two different histories

And there are two histories
