lyrics

[Verse One]
Did you take a walk where nobody had ever gone before
Or did you run where nobody’d go?
Did you fall asleep in heaven where the angels soar
Or did you fall where demons roam?

Is it hard keeping every tongue you tied
Or did you want to lose every war?
Is it hard falling into dreams every night
Or aren’t these demons at your door?

[Pre-Chorus]
But you don’t want to leave, 'cause you owe it to him
Though I know, he’d sooner be deserving of this

[Chorus]
So I’ll beg the angels to let you in
You’ve suffered too long now from someone else’s sin
And you can’t ever forget it
And I’ll beg the demons to leave you alone
You spent too long there, now they’re calling you home

[Verse Two]
So how’s it feel taking every pointed word?
Do you still think you’ve found home?
How’s it feel taking every pointless sword?
Do you still think you can’t let go?

Ain’t it fun when the devil appears in you?
Poison leaks into every line
Ain’t it fun when he’s lying on the cold ground, too
And you haven’t lost every fight?

[Pre-Chorus]
But you don’t want to leave, 'cause you‘re terrified
Though I know, you’d sooner see that devil die

[Chorus]
So I’ll beg the angels to let you in
You’ve suffered too long now from someone else’s sin
And you can’t ever forget it
And I’ll beg the demons to leave you alone
You spent too long there, now they’re calling you home

[Bridge]
And now you’re running from something true
So hold it close and let him run from you
And you’re fine now, you’re finally free
But you still keep one eye open when you fall asleep
And the memories are faded
But no life’s taken quite this long before

[Soft Chorus]
So I’ll beg the angels to let you in
You suffered too long now from someone else’s sin

[Chorus]
So I’ll beg the angels to let you in
You’ve suffered too long now from someone else’s sin
And you can’t ever forget it
And I’ll beg the demons to leave you alone
You spent too long there, in that place you called home

And I’ll beg the angels to lead you in
You've suffered too long now, living in your painted skin
And now you want it to heal you
And I’ll beg the demons to let you go
But they’ll never know, these memories still fall asleep with you
