Unlearning the damage I've knit myself within
To break free of trauma grown beneath my skin
A mangled nail lodged so deep in the wall
A trap door exit from my own downfall
Will I ever get to Heaven
If I can only look down?
A calculated armageddon
Under this burdening crown
Fog settles outside a weeping home
The sound of nothing is begging to atone
Time again spent learning to make the way
The bonds I held so closely, leading me away
Inherit their pain just to see them as weak
It's looming over me, and over me until it's hard to speak
Battle to the end, to never see the peak
See the apathy grow when they struggle to their feet
Will I ever get to Heaven
If I can only look down?
A calculated armageddon
Under this burdening crown
Circumstance makes no amends
Just a hungry animal, trying to fend
Too stuck in the muck to see it out
Your shortest chain, snagged on doubt
Broken teeth yet I am smiling bright
I can't retreat from my endless fight
Will I ever get to Heaven
If I can only look down?
A calculated armageddon
Under this burdening crown
Will I ever get to Heaven
If I can only look down?
A calculated armageddon
Under this burdening crown
