Heaven At My Door

Someone gave this Gun to me,

Now i shoot it constantly.

Dont wanna shoot it anymore,

Cause Heaven's knocking on my door.

Dont wanna be this broken Man,

Cant even calm His shaking hands.

Cant put this Gun down, cant you see?

I'm still at War inside of me,

So many wounds disgrace my name,

So many scars that show my shame.

Dont wanna be this anymore,

So close to opening the door.

I'm so tired, so tired of Pain,

So tired of this life I feign.

I wanna change my wicked ways,

Cause at this rate Heaven wont wait.

I've seen good friends just come and go,

Victims of the Guns they'd hold.

They found them cold and all alone,

I cursed the Guns yet kept my own.

Sometimes I shoot myself and cry,

Fall in and out and wonder why.

Why this cold darkness shadows me,

And will I fight it hopelessly?

Will I fall victim to my Gun,

Never say goodbye to anyone?

Someone take this Gun from me,

Cause It just brings me to my knees.

Cant prey to Gods I dont believe.

This Gun no longer brings relief.

Dont wanna be this broken Man,

Cant even calm his shaking hands.

Cant put this Gun down, Cant you see?!

I'm still at War inside of me.

So many wounds disgrace my name,

So many scars that show my shame.

Dont wanna die slow anymore,

But Heaven's knockin at my door.

I know I should hang up my Gun,

And take it all as damage done,

But Heaven knows that I cant stay away,

And soon will come my shades of Grey......

Cant put it down, why cant you see?!

Somebody Take this Gun from me....
