Story Behind The Song
A friend of mine passed away. Before he passed he was the inspiration for many songs, and the fact that he still inspired songs in his death amazed me. Whenever I sat down at the piano he was the first thing I'd always think to write about.That's a powerful impact to leave on this earth.

Lyrics
Raisin' Hell
I know I've gotta stop writing songs about you
Eventually I need to move on, move on
And it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
Oh it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
~~~
You always leave a lasting impression
You draw me back time and time again, time again
And it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
Oh it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
~~~
Cause you're still the same
And you always will be
Breakin' all our hearts
Again and again
You're hard to get over and you
Don't even know it
Breakin' all the boundaries
Not afraid to show it
You're a cool type of fella
Just one of the dudes
Truth be told that's
Why I miss you
And to this day it's
Still amazing
I don't know how you do it, but you're
Raisin' Hell from Heaven
~~~
I've got no clue just how you did it, You
Grabbed my heart and never let go, let go
And it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
Oh it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
~~~
Cause you're still the same
And you always will be
Breakin' all our hearts
Again and again
You're hard to get over and you
Don't even know it
Breakin' all the boundaries
Not afraid to show it
You're a cool type of fella
Just one of the dudes
Truth be told that's
Why I miss you
And to this day it's
Still amazing
I don't know how you do it, but you're
Raisin' Hell from Heaven
~~~
And it amazes me the power you have the grip you've got a hold on me
Oh it amazes me how a heart can yearn for
Someone who's just
Not coming back
But my heart doesn't know
And my head doesn't have the strength to tell it that it's time to let you go
~~~
Cause you're still the same
And you always will be
Breakin' all our hearts
Again and again
You're hard to get over and you
Don't even know it
Breakin' all the boundaries
Not afraid to show it
You're a cool type of fella
Just one of the dudes
Truth be told that's
Why I miss you
And to this day it's
Still amazing
I don't know how you do it, but you're
Raisin' Hell from Heaven
