The kids have a new take, a new take on faith

Pick up the pieces, get carried away

I came home to a city half-erased

I came home to face what we faced

This place needs me here to start

This place is the beat of my heart

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

The storm didn't kill me, the government changed

Hear the answer and call, hear this song, rearranged

Hear the trees, the ghosts and the buildings, sing

With the wisdom to reconcile this thing

It's sweet, and it's sad, and it's true

How it doesn't look bitter on you

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

Mother and father, I stand beside you

The good of this world might help see me through

This place needs me here to start

This place is the beat of my heart

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

Oh, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)

Oh

, my heart

Oh, my heart

(Oh, my heart)
