Once again, I am searching for heaven
The beauty has disappeared
Gone far away from me
The angels have
It seemed like something happened
To tear you away from me
But it was my own stupid mistakes
The formula of my destruction
Fragmented and splattered across the page
She's like a shooting star he said
Now watch me fly
My compact body nothing but a bullet
To the heart
Listening to distant murmurs
Long forgotten
Armed with memories
Of moments rather missed
I hear the drone of your monotone screams
Begging for somebody to catch you
Where is your heaven now?
Where are your angels?
Have you missed them like I have?
I am sorry
This is no simulation, my friend
This is life
The painful reality we must realize
It does exist
Beyond our fantasy realms
That we turn to so often
As dreamers that God has made us to be
Then there was you standing alone
Can you feel your feelings
Turning to dust?
You have crushed mine
No... My apologies...
I crushed my own
Crumbled them like paper
Because of my own mistakes
Then the love died
And that was all that was left
Now we are more than alone
The beauty has disappeared
Gone far away from me
The angels have
It seemed like something happened
To tear you away from me
But it was my own stupid mistakes
The formula of my destruction
Fragmented and splattered across the page
She's like a shooting star he said
Now watch me fly
My compact body nothing but a bullet
To the heart
Listening to distant murmurs
Long forgotten
Armed with memories
Of moments rather missed
I hear the drone of your monotone screams
Begging for somebody to catch you
Where is your heaven now?
Where are your angels?
Have you missed them like I have?
I am sorry
This is no simulation, my friend
This is life
The painful reality we must realize
It does exist
Beyond our fantasy realms
That we turn to so often
As dreamers that God has made us to be
Then there was you standing alone
Can you feel your feelings
Turning to dust?
You have crushed mine
No... My apologies...
I crushed my own
Crumbled them like paper
Because of my own mistakes
Then the love died
And that was all that was left
Now we are more than alone

Awww, so sad. We can't always save ourselves though, it's okay to be imperfect, it's only human.
