Dead Lover's Twisted Heart

Though the whole world be blown apart No matter how dumb or how smart Still beats beneath the rocky rumble The dead lover's twisted heart It's too late to stop or start Anything else would never reach great art 'Cept the lonely faithful longing The dead lover's twisted heart Though the wind is blowing free And the sun is shining happy Though your faces show no sympathy For buried deep beneath the shopping mart The dead lover's twisted heart Though this story sad it is Wrapped in sorrow, borne of mystery It was years of painless suffering The dead lover's twisted heart --- Dead Lover's Twisted Heart - Daniel Johnston
