Lyrics
Your Heart
Oh Angel Michael, why don't you stop me?
My fists are clenched, my bowl have been poured
Your pretty brother has tried to top me
I let him have his way with this world
Because from up here he looks so distant,
But he's more realistic than anyone else
And people pray, hoping that I'll listen
But I'll stay distant, yeah I'll stay distant
Let them have their way, they'll still forget you
Try to bring them back, they'll never let you
I won't let you in, until I have your heart again
These forming stones have grown so much colder,
My steady hands have grown so poor
I'm turning back this world's turned over,
I do not recognize it anymore
Let them have their way, they'll still forget you
Try to bring them back, they'll never let you
I won't let you in, until I have your heart again
Let them have their way, they'll still forget you
Try to bring them back, they'll never let you
I won't let you in, until I have your heart again
And people pray hoping that I'll listen,
But I'll stay distant, they made me distant
