Using a strong beat and rhyming pattern, this creates a sense of mystery and disloyalty.
Heart Beat

Tap to me my heart beat
my love
and sing the rythem long
tap to me the pulse of life
and draw from my blood a song.

Rip back the melody of heart
my dear
and hum along with the slaves
peirce my flesh with your finger nails
and carve the road we paved.

Trick the clock with your watch
my love
and fade into the glass.
I feel you as you feel me
hiding in the grass. 

What is it you want to see
my dear
wandering so close to the brink?
the water has spilled overboard
the ship did already sink.

Tap to me my heart beat
my love
and wander in the black
hold my hand in case of fear
cause there's no turning back
