Heartbeat

Symphonic

Tap tap, all instruments rise
We want them to feel our
First emotion of welcoming
Joy and elation, so we swell
With strings of sweet serenade
Swirling the soundwaves within
This hall till all are at peace
Then the verbrato of looming
Excitement, it's coming with
Every trill and then
The percussion of a thousand
Stampedes! Crashing, riding
On every beat, in sync with
The heartbeats that course
Through your body, keeping
You alive, alive, alive
Now, they will feel our
Burning desire, deepest
Angers, most craven fears
All within this simple score
Written out of nothing
But blood, sweat and tears

And then the lone piano
Quietly dispells a tiny plea
To be heard amongst
All the noise

Rise, take a bow. It's over
