Because Heaven Knows
(专辑: Hard Feelings - 2012)
I
haven't been avoiding you, don't think that I
don't care I
just can't seem to bring myself, knowing you're not there I
go into each and every year, with heavy hearts and shaking hands A
feeling in my gut comes back, with thoughts that I
can't stand You're the
reason I
still stand up straight, you help to keep my head high I
know that I'll see you again someday, for now I'll look up at the
sky These markings on my chest are for the
angel on my shoulder I
try to tell myself, it's just the
pain of getting older I
know it's not my place to say, I'm sorry Nothing I
could say would make this change, or go away But I
hope I
still have time left, to let you know Everything that I've done, is because of you I
know that deep inside my heart, you were content And I
hope you're catching up on years, that you lost with your daughter I
can't help but be so selfish, because I
wish you were here And the
best way to move on from this, is to celebrate all your years If I
could pump my blood in to your veins, I'd take the
air right from my lungs I'd do anything, to get rid of the
pain And it's taking everything, to hold my tongue Cause heaven knows, I'd love to burn it down And if I
could speak to god, I'd give him hell Like the
kind he put in your life, he's the
reason we can't sleep at night He's the
reason we can't, sleep at night
