lyrics

I've been singin' for my demons
So they won't speak for me
And lately i've been dreaming
That yours might set you free
I heard about the bottle
I know about the gun
I heard about your reasons
And why you think it's done
But maybe there's a question
That your demon didn't ask
And maybe there's an answer
That he's always holding back

Even at the bottom
Where all your evils lay
The cruelest thing that you can do
Is leave this world today

I'd sing here but i'm screaming
For things I can't unsee
A man beside his grieving
His heart can barely breathe
I heard about your lover
I know you know you're wrong
I heard about her reasons
And why she's really gone
But maybe there's a question
That your lover never asked
And maybe it's a blessing
That she's never coming back

Even at the bottom
It's not the only way
So come on back outside
Before you miss this perfect day
Even at the bottom
Where all your evils lay
The cruelest thing that you can do
Is leave this world today

My singing won't stop bullets
Or make or break your will
But maybe love can hit you
Harder than your pills
Just turn your head and
Open your eyes to what's above
There's pink and blue and purple
And orange from the sun
And if you look back down
There's even more to gleam
A family screaming begging
Their child to finally see

Even at the bottom
It's not the only way
So come on back outside
Before you miss this perfect day
Even at the bottom
Where all your evils lay
The cruelest thing that you can do
Is leave this world today
Even at the bottom
It's not the only way
So come on back outside
Before you miss this perfect day
Even at the bottom
Where all your evils lay
The cruelest thing that you can do
Is leave this world today
