My friend has left (my friend has left)
He has left forever (he has left forever)
But I am alive
Beat your drum
Make this body move (make this body move)
Give it happiness (give it happiness)
So that tomorrow, I dance again
So that I'm no longer afraid

Beat your drum (beat your drum)
Make me dance (make me dance)
Let your drum sound
Right down to my feet

I feel the tears welling up (I feel the tears welling up)
But I'm not going to cry (but I'm not going to cry)
I feel my sorrow rumbling
I'm going to sing it

Come and take my pain away
Come and take my pain away

Beat your drum (beat your drum)
Make me dance (make me dance)
Let your drum sound
Right down to my feet

I feel a lump in my throat (I feel a lump in my throat)
But I'm not going to cry (but I'm not going to cry)
I feel the anger rising
The urge to scream
I want to wring the neck of this pain (I want to wring the neck of this pain)
This pain that devours me (this pain that devours me)
I hit my body
I hit, I hit again
I feel the tears flowing (I feel the tears flowing)
But I'm not going to cry (but I'm not going to cry)
I feel life collapsing
I'm going to sing it

Come and take my pain away
Come and take my pain away
Come and take my pain
