Heaven’s looking down

Heaven’s looking down

9-13-16

I’ve been cold for so long, lord you know it to be true

I’ve wandered endlessly, for years, I’ve paid my dues

I’m not proud of everything I put my name on

I’m not ashamed of all the friendships that I made though

My spirit’s soaring high, it bursts through clouds, invincible

My heart is strong but my body is frail, mortality has it’s limits

My dreams all swirl, someday I will see them through

She’ll be my girl, my very world, I’d be so small if that were true

Heaven’s looking down

I see my face, I can’t believe it

What have I done? I don’t deserve this

I see the rain, or are those tears?

Washing out the pain

It’s falling down, it’s falling down

I’ve been sold lies and half truths, promises not made good

I’ve followed false gods, would be prophets, and been conned

I’m not loud, but deep inside you know I’m screaming

I won’t stay silent while the weak still suffer, and are mistreated

My spirit has been through wars and cleansed by fire

My heart’s emerged from ice and stone, it’s pumping hard again

My dreams are vivid, but my focus needs a steady hand

If she says yes, I will be blessed beyond the laws of man

Heaven’s looking down

I see my face, I can’t believe it

What have I done? I don’t deserve this

I see the rain, or is that tears?

Washing out the pain

It’s falling down, it’s falling down
