Help I'm Alive by Metric

(lyrics)

I tremble, they're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble they're gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If you're still alive my regrets are few
If my life is mine what shouldn't I do?

I get wherever I'm going, I get whatever I need
While my blood's still flowing and my heart's still
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If you're still alive my regrets are few
If my life is mine what shouldn't I do?
I get wherever I'm going, I get whatever I need

While my blood's still flowing and my heart's still beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

I tremble, they're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble they're gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer

I see this as a Bella-esque P.O.V. from the moments directly after meeting the Volturi for the first time.

"If you're still alive my regrets are few" obvz about Edward, and could be flipped for Edward's feelings towards Bella.

And I can also see this song as describing Bella transitioning to living in Forks (trembling/stumbling being the new girl, etc etc), but it's a foreshadowing of what is really going to happen.
"They're gonna eat me alive", Bella thinking that figuratively about the kids at her new school, but it's actually a literal lyric [at least when dealing with Jazz Wink ]

And I think this lyrics in particular, "Hard to be soft, tough to be tender" is gorgeous and truthful in describing Edward.
