A recall of broken tactics
I'm one step from the edge of the pavement
When all factors of life and death subside
Take a look from the other side
If heaven's such a better place
Then I hope you find it
If expression tells us anything
Then I hope this will suffice
Because you live your life for everything
Except for what's right here and now
If you'd take a second look to see
That they were the ones who sold you out
But you'd rather live in fear
(I've been thinking so hard I can't stand)
A slave to what you own
(I've been trying so hard I can't mend)
Why protect yourself?
(I've been trying)
When you have nowhere to go?
(I've been thinking so hard I can't stand)
If heaven's such a better place
Then I hope you find it
If you'd look inside you'd truly see
That what you're looking for is closer than you think
But they've said that time heals everything
That's what it takes until we see
Because that time will get the best of you
Just as it'll get the best of me
