Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal, it's so unfair
And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels, yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
Leaving flowers on your grave
To show that I still care
Black roses and Hail Mary's
Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call on your name
And if I could trade, I would
And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings, and it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away
Now that you've gone away
I reach to the sky
And call on your name
And if I could trade, I would
And it feels, and it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels, yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away

Another day in this carnival of souls
Another night settles in, as quickly as it goes
The memories are shadows, ink on the page
And I can't seem to find my way home
And it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
All the places I've been and things I've seen
A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams
The faces of people I'll never see again
And I can't seem to find my way home
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To keep me out
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
'Cause it's almost like
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down
To break me down
To break me down
Your heaven's trying everything
Your heaven's trying everything
To break me down

I spoke to God today
And she said that she's ashamed
What have I become?
What have I done?
I spoke to the devil today
And he swears he's not to blame
And I understood
'Cause I feel the same
Arms wide open, I stand alone
I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side of hell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side, the righteous side of hell
I heard from God today
And she sounded just like me
What have I done?
And who have I become?
I saw the devil today
And he looked a lot like me
I looked away.
I turned away
Arms wide open, I stand alone
I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side of hell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side, the righteous side of hell
I'm not defending
Downward descending
Falling further and further away
Getting closer every day
I'm getting closer every day
To the end
To the end, the end, the end
I'm getting closer every day
Arms wide open, I stand alone
I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side of hell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side, the righteous side of hell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven
And the righteous side, the righteous side of hell
