The Shakes
You feel that in your chest as you listen to him speak?
You feel that swelling courage
Do you feel like you’re complete
Do your feet begin to tingle and your arms begin to shake
Do your teeth sit firm together
Do you feel your heart awake
Do you want to be a hero even though you have no sign
Do you want to be a hero and to save a human life
My fingers start to shiver as my body starts to sweat
My eyes are wide with longing from that feeling in my chest
And when the speech is over it still lingers like a brace
Around my heart
Around my mind
Around my need to chase
You feel that swelling courage
Do you feel like you’re complete
Do your feet begin to tingle and your arms begin to shake
Do your teeth sit firm together
Do you feel your heart awake
Do you want to be a hero even though you have no sign
Do you want to be a hero and to save a human life
My fingers start to shiver as my body starts to sweat
My eyes are wide with longing from that feeling in my chest
And when the speech is over it still lingers like a brace
Around my heart
Around my mind
Around my need to chase
