Echoes of Longing: Drumming Beats That Resonate Love and Loss
Lyrics
There's a drumming noise inside my head
Feeling a persistent drumming sensation in the mind when the person of interest is present.
That starts when you're around
The drumming noise begins when the person is around.
I swear that you could hear it
Expressing a belief that the drumming noise is audible to others.
It makes such an almighty sound
The sound is powerful and intense.
There's a drumming noise inside my head
The drumming sensation has a physical impact, causing the speaker to be thrown to the ground.
That throws me to the ground
Reiterating the impact of the drumming noise on the speaker.
I swear that you should hear it
Emphasizing the belief that others should be able to hear the drumming sound.
It makes such an almighty sound
Reinforcing the intensity of the drumming noise.
Louder than sirens
Describing the drumming noise as louder than sirens, bells, sweeter than heaven, and hotter than hell, highlighting its overwhelming nature.
Louder than bells
-Sweeter than heaven
-And hotter than hell
-I ran to a tower where the church bells chime
Seeking relief from the drumming noise by running to a tower with church bells, but the drumming persists despite the ringing in the ears.
I hoped that they would clear my mind
-They left a ringing in my ear
-But that drum's still beating loud and clear
-Louder than sirens (louder than sirens)
Repeating the comparison of the drumming noise to sirens, bells, heaven, and hell.

Louder than bells
-Sweeter than heaven
-And hotter than hell
-Louder than sirens

Louder than bells
-Sweeter than heaven
-And hotter than hell
-As I move my feet towards your body
Experiencing the drumming sensation intensify as the speaker moves towards the person of interest.
I can hear this beat, it fills my head up
-And gets louder and louder
-It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
-I run to the river and dive straight in
Attempting to drown out the drumming noise by diving into a river, but the echoes persist even underwater.
I pray that the water will drown out the din
-But as the water fills my mouth
-It couldn't wash the echoes out
-But as the water fills my mouth
-It couldn't wash the echoes out
-I swallow the sound and it swallows me whole
Metaphorically describing the speaker's emptiness as the drumming sound consumes their soul.
'Til there's nothing left inside my soul
-I'm as empty as that beating drum
-But the sound has just begun
-As I move my feet towards your body
