lyrics

I saw the heavens open
And it was calling my name.
No sooner had I spoken
Than it was closing again.

No one can tell me what I saw.
I swear to God.

I'm betrayed again.
I had it right in my hand.

I saw the sky was swirling
From the windowpane.
All this time, I've been learning
How to deal with my pain.

'Cuz my misdirection has made me strong.
I swear to God.

I'm betrayed again.
I had it right in the palm of my hand.
I'm betrayed again.
I had it right here.

Heaven, she said...
Heaven, she said

I'll leave you nothing,
Nothing but the pain, yeah.
I swear to God I can
Take it all away.
I'll leave you nothing,
Nothing but the pain.

'Cuz I had it right in the palm of my hand,
The fire that burns in the back of my head.
Fake mirrored life, I've always been dead inside
Always been dead

I saw the heavens open
And it was calling my name.
No sooner had I spoken
Than it was closing again.

No one can tell me what I saw.
I swear to God.
