Keane - Black Burning Heart Lyrics
I wish that I could be
In the cellars of the sea
And disappear in them
Never to be seen again
Its unrelenting appetite
For feeding off the weak
Who never had their turn to speak
The sky will be my shroud
A monument of cloud
If we could turn back
You can paper over the crack
But it will return now
Give me your hand
Cut the skin, let me in
The molecules of us
Bleeding into one again
The sky will be my shroud
A cenotaph of cloud
If we could turn back
You can paper over the crack
But it will return now
And your heart will burn black
Forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
I know everything you said was right and I suppose
Everything is here forever till it goes
You gave it all away, kept nothing for yourself
Just a picture on the shelf
Je souhaiterai m'immerger dans les profondeurs des mers
Y disparaître pour ne plus jamais être vu
Burning up
Now I'm racing down a road I don't recognise
I realise I've forgotten my way home
Forgotten everything that I know
Every day a false start
And it burns my heart
Turn back

Keane Black Burning Heart Comments
Simply love this song! Such beautiful, sensitive lyrics..its hard to come by such lyrics with almost any other band. Tim Rice-Oxley is such a talented song writer! And Tom Chaplin's voice takes it to another level.
This song is a train in the middle of the night speeding and casting its moon lit shadow on the dry desert dust.
I love this song.
Best song ever
Only a genius could write a song like this - it's AWESOME!
J'adore le rajout du français ! 😍😍
Beautiful song

Go back and listen to Keanes albums there’s lots of gems on them you forget about
This isn't even on the best of album, nor was it a major singles release but the best song on Perfect Symmetry.
Poesía real para mis oídos!!! Gracias Keane por estas obras maestras....estarán en cada uno de los que saben apreciar música de verdad. 😉👍
I love this song
Sheer class
Still good
saudades *-*
I love this song so much, SO SENTIMENTAL. Plus it has a great rhythm to it. Keane is the best 💫👌🏽✨

Our wish has been granted.
De las mejores canciones de Keane <3
Daniela Bustamante Asi es de hecho si te gusta Keane debe de gustarte la mayoria de sus canciones si no es que todas ✌
@Alex Quintos todas
som do Keane remete a nostalgia pura, show
The song with the Wings.
::KEANE:: ♥ love you for ever!
Best song. Best band. Best voice...
wanderfull.!! amazing song.! love you!!
Awesome!!!!
Have listened to a lot of songs, from many artists, and many bands. Some songs are really good that went into my head. But if you ask which song I like the best so far in my life? BLACK BURNING HEART！
One of the best songs form me !!!!
Travis...
This band is inspired by the goddess....
cool story
This like Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand, Queen and Prince is one amazing band.....
Coldplay? mmmm very over rated...Keane are so much better...Prince has no equals!!!!!!
Coldplay and Keane get compared often. Although both contemporary I'd say its more the fans that compare than the actual music.
Franz Ferdinand has a serious 80's Alternative vibe to them. Perfect Symmetry was very disco which scream 80's and they are considered an Alternative Band.
Tom Chaplin covered Queen songs several times, especially in there Under Pressure cover Tim made a nice Bowie and Tom made a good fit for Mercury.
Prince was known for his outstanding skills as a Guitarist along with popular song, Keane on the other hand hired a guitarist on there last album Strangeland.
Right on Laddie!
Please, no comparison with Coldplay....Keane is WAY better than them!
I know Cold play wishes they were Keane ,though with the amount of ripping off Cold play have done ,they have probably slyly copied so much from them too.
::KEANE:: ♥
Amazing song! And the French part is great as well.
◾️🔥❤️
Muy buena
such a great band ever!!!!!!!!
rima je taime
Three words=Tim Rice-Oxley!!!!!! ;D
Truly a masterpiece
Heart felt shit... quality!!
like the rest of album - Not good!!
One of there best for me.
Steven Ramage I agree, I love this song so much ✨❤️
Escucho esta canción y siento como si aún estuviera en el 2008 cuando era un pequeño de 13 años :)
Genial. Yo igual tenía la misma edad cuando compré perfect symmetry n.n
@Jose Juan Rivera Reyes Esta fue la primera vez que escuché el album de Perfect Symmetry, y lo amé, lo amé por completo, Keane ha sido también una gran parte de mi infancia, cuando tenía 6 años mi mamá consiguió los maravillosos álbumes de "Hopes And Fears" y "Under The Iron Sea", y su música marcó un espacio en mi interior de una gran manera
Keane,,,so talented
I like this song
and than more I listen it , I like it more
good song !
yeah I have about 70 songs of his and they are very different styles going on. Most bands have one style and that is it! I would love to hear other band members songs they could go on forever!
Love this song...
Totally agree dude. Was just saying that before came on this vid
damn right
i love the song...ah but the chorus is disappointing!! i want more more more more from keane!!! *gonna listen to other keane's song( so addicting)
LOVE PICTURES!!! LOVE THE SONG!! LOVE KEANEEEEEEE!!!!
an amazing song!!!! :')
just awesome :D
"I wish I could sink into the depths of the seas; vanish, and never be seen again."
That's what the beautiful French part translates too. :) Aah, it's the sound that falling would make!
just a perfect song!!!!!
I Love This Song! REALLY!
wonderfull song
Melhor banda de todos os tempos, By Brazilian Boy
is one of the best song of keane.... i like it

I thank life to put them in my way. This is the best band I've ever known, this love is the purest one I've ever felt. KEANE, PLEASE BE WITH ME UNTIL I LEAVE THIS WORLD <3
just perfection!! I can't even imagine my life without Keane :')
Probablemente, mi canción favorita de Keane. It's just AMAZING♥.
the whole song is amazing, but the chorus is unbelievably amazing
"Tom's voice already gone to shit" - Man, where are your ears?????
Who said that about Tom?
Original Coldplay. Like the original music from them early.....
@EvanescentMelody That's more than ENORMOUS! :o
Awwwww, my Gosh!!!!! WHAT A SONG, WHAT A VOICE!!!!!!!! Uhhhhhhh, Tom! You shocked me with that singing!!!!!!!! The whole is f***ing great!!!!!
Thank you! ... and thx for sharing, Samanta!
@cszg1 Hello!:) Ez tényleg jó! ...Pláne ahhoz képest, hogy folyton fikázzák (bocs) a Perfect Symmetry-t!:) Tom hangja itt is jól szól... Nagyon kíváncsi vok a hamarosan megjelenő albumukra!:) Üdv: Sz
TOM'S VOICE
@TheWithLyrics ok now I think that pretend you're alone is the weakest
@otaku8489 got that right
Nagyon jó! ( perfect ! )
Black Burning Heart! ♥
Why dislike this song? Its so beautiful. Just don't listen if you don't like it. Don't hate !!!!!!!!
i love all keane songs, sat here xmas nite
im stuck listening to keane i love this band so talented
this a great song, is it from 'Perfect Symmetry'? I didn't get that one...
this is pure music ....we have different kind of music...pure music is the one u can listin in ur loneliness and feel happy and refresh !
UGH I die when I hear this song. This is on my top ten favorite Keane songs.
@lluna788 Eso pasa por eso los amo tantooo al final ellos son los que siempre se quedan :D por eso amo tanto la música :D
"Leave this life
It's unrelenting appetite
For feeding off the weak
Who never had their turn to speak"
such poetic lyrics <33
que buena banda
One of my favourite songs. With Keane it's difficult to pick song and say 'this is my favourite one' as all of Keane' music is unique, and every song conveys a different message or an emotion.
@heroineadict I don't understand how you can think this is crap o_O
not that I'm judging, I just don't get it xD
@CertifiedShipper97 Why would you be offended? you're not from the band are you? Live, love, and enjoy w/e you want imo. On a side note though, don't judge every book by its cover, you'll accomplish nothing.
@CertifiedShipper97 How does one appreciate this garbage? I'm glad I don't find crap like this often because wow it is bad. I'm not sure why the hell Youtube recommended this crap to me.
You can feel the magic in every number of Keane. Specially this number and Perfect Symmetry!
on of the best song of Keane
As músicas de Keane são coisas para se levar para a vida inteira.
La France. Beau pays si tu en exclus sa société.
