    Verse 1
    sit 
    on overcast 
    days, 

    with 
    my eyes 
    glazed 

    Amazed 
    at 
    the way 

    the sun 
    rays 

    affect 
    the maze 

    Only 
    God 
    can 
    take 
    away 
    my 
    seed 

    And 
    only 
    God 
    can 
    give 

    me back 
    what 
    I need 

    It 
    doesn't 
    matter 

    cause we're 
    anxiously 
    await
    ing 

    Watch
    ing 
    all 
    the doctors 

    has 
    my 
    heart 
    racing 

    What's 
    that 
    they're saying? 

    don't 
    under
    stand 

    How 
    can 
    I describe 

    the 
    feelings 
    of 
    the man 

    Who 
    lost 
    his 
    children 

    and 
    since 
    I've 
    been 
    building 

    I'll 
    see 
    how she's 
    feeling 

    since her 
    memory 
    is 
    gone 

    Des
    pite 
    the 
    killing 

    I'll 
    keep 
    on ful
    filling 

    Cause I'm 
    pushed 
    to the 
    city 

    but 
    now 
    it's 
    a song 

    I'm 
    on 
    the streets, 

    arms 
    filled 
    with grief 

    Lost 
    all 
    my peace 

    when I 
    found that 
    God's 
    a thief 

    Where's 
    all the 
    heat? 

    My 
    heart's 
    become 
    cold 

    I'd 
    rather 
    choose 
    death 

    than watch 
    these problems 
    unfold 

    stroll 
    through the 
    heavens 

    holding 
    hands 
    with my 
    twins 

    Faith 
    of God's 
    forgiveness 

    and 
    declared 
    all 
    my sins 

    Who's 
    next 
    to kin? 

    His spirit 
    all 
    be
    gins 

    To 
    die 
    a fast 
    death 

    is 
    the only 
    way 
    I'll win 

    I'll 
    spread 
    the wings 
    of 
    my soul, 

    catch 
    the wind's 
    breath 

    Sug
    gest 
    a new 
    life 

    since 
    I'm consumed 
    by 
    death 

    Walk 
    in 
    the flesh, 
    you'd 
    under
    stand, 

    I felt 
    the fingertips 
    slip 

    right 
    down 
    my hands 

    don't even 
    know 
    if you 

    can hear 
    me at 
    all, 

    I'm sitting 
    in this 
    bed 

    with my 
    hands 
    upon 
    the floor 

    Seem
    to me 
    you 

    a million 
    miles 
    away, 

    but it 
    doesn't seem 
    to matter 

    what 
    words 
    say 

    You're 
    sitting 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there, 

    don't even 
    know 
    if you 
    care 

    You're 
    sitting 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there, 

    don't even 
    know 
    if you 
    care 

    don't even 
    know 

    who 
    can hear 
    me at 
    all 

    Two 
    knees 
    bent, 
    hands 
    on 
    the floor 

    Seem
    to me 
    you 
    a million 
    miles 
    away 

    It 
    doesn't 
    seem 
    to matter 

    what 
    the words 
    say 

    You 
    sitting 
    in 
    the heaven I 
    fell 

    I don't 
    even 
    know 
    if 
    I care 

    God's 
    eyes 
    are closed, 

    he must 
    have turned 
    his back 

    Now 
    it's time 
    for me 
    to pick 
    up the slack 

    But 
    who am 
    to blame? 

    I'll 
    probably 
    do the 
    same 

    Change 
    the rules 
    of 
    the game, 

    so I 
    guess 
    I can't 
    complain 

    try 
    to tame 
    the shame, 

    but 
    the flames 
    from my 
    dame 

    Nev
    er 
    feel the 
    same 

    since the 
    saints 
    that I 
    became 

    That 
    would've 
    had my 
    name, 

    but 
    took my 
    will 
    to live 

    Did 
    more 
    to this 
    kid 

    than what 
    a gunshot 
    could give 

    No 
    self 
    -expression, 

    my soul's 
    in 
    reces
    sion 

    I'll 
    take 
    this mythic 
    lesson 

    and 
    finish 
    my 
    aggression 

    Shoot 
    all the 
    people, 

    make 
    them feel 
    equal 

    I'm 
    overcome, 

    my evil 
    can't 
    stand what's 
    at 
    the steeple 

    The 
    problem 
    seems 
    to be 

    that 
    my anger's 
    what 
    you 
    make 
    it 

    might 
    as well be 
    living 

    in the 
    freezing 
    winter 
    naked 

    I'll 
    take 
    it, 
    cause 
    the 
    anger 

    makes 
    you 
    strong 

    Let's 
    all 
    sing 
    along 
    till 

    we feel 
    we belong 

    It 
    doesn't 
    matter 
    if 

    your soul 
    wants 
    to listen 

    It 
    doesn't 
    matter 
    if 

    you lost 
    all your 
    vision 

    It 
    doesn't 
    matter 
    if 

    you're stuck 
    inside 
    a prison 

    It 
    doesn't 
    matter 
    if 
    you got 

    the world 
    wishing 

    It's 
    your 
    decision, 

    we 
    seem 
    to make 
    it 
    clear 

    How 
    can 
    we 
    follow 

    when the 
    boat's 
    not being 
    steered? 

    Cap
    tain, 
    Captain, 

    the 
    ship's 
    going 
    down 

    Cap
    tain, 
    Captain, 

    she wears 
    the Lord's 
    crown 

    Captain, 
    Captain, 
    she blames 
    it on 
    me 

    Captain, 
    Captain, 
    the 
    ship 
    ain't out 
    to sea 

    don't 
    even 
    know 
    if you can 

    feel 
    me at 
    all 

    You've 
    been 
    handsome 
    on 
    the floor 

    She's 
    a million, 

    you a 
    million miles 
    away 

    Does
    n't 
    seem 
    to matter 

    what 
    words 
    I say 

    You're 
    sittin' 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there 

    don't 
    even 
    know if 
    you care 

    You're 
    sittin' 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there 

    don't 
    even 
    know if 
    you care 

    don't 
    even 
    know 
    if you 

    can feel 
    me at 
    all 

    You've 
    been 
    handsome 
    on 
    the floor 

    She's 
    me, 
    you a 
    million miles 
    away 

    It 
    doesn't 
    seem to 
    matter 

    what 
    words 
    I say 

    She's 
    sitting 
    in 
    the heaven 
    fell 

    don't 
    even 
    know 
    if you care 

    I'm 
    too 
    close 
    and too 
    broke, 

    my heart 
    chokes 

    I soak 
    in 
    the sorrow 

    that 
    is soaked 
    in my 
    soul 

    fought 
    on the 
    road, 

    and fought 
    what you stole 

    thought that 
    they'd 
    grow, 

    but it's 
    not what 
    you know 

    And 
    it's 
    not 
    what you 
    told, 

    so this 
    life 
    ain't to 
    hold 

    And all 
    the silver 
    and 
    gold 

    can't 
    fill up 
    this 
    hole 

    Long 
    is the 
    road, 
    long 
    is 
    the road, 

    long 
    is 
    the 

    Depres
    sion 
    sets 
    in, 
    where's 
    it going, 

    how 
    could this 
    happen 

    If 
    you're all 
    knowing, 

    what 
    do I 
    pursue 

    when 
    there's nothing 
    left 
    to do 

    Hell 
    became 
    real, 
    and 
    where 
    were you, 

    I knew 
    I had 
    it easy 

    knew 
    I'd touch 
    the sky, 

    I knew 
    life would 
    feed 
    me 

    but I 
    couldn't 
    say 
    bye 

    There's 
    nothing 
    worse 

    than 
    missing 
    the 
    birth 

    and 
    I'll never 
    stop 
    searching 

    Since 
    my 
    life 
    is cursed 

    and 
    might 
    as well 
    die 

    Cause I've 
    lost 
    lives 
    high, 

    and 
    I'll never 
    cry 
    if 
    I turn 
    to suicide 

    saw 
    the footsteps, 

    taken 
    with such 
    care 

    Why'd 
    I lose 
    the pair 

    that 
    ripped my 
    soul 
    bare? 

    God's 
    got 
    your back, 

    but God 
    must be 
    frontin' 

    Cause 
    right 
    before my 
    eyes, 

    God told 
    everything 
    to 
    nothin' 

    I lived 
    my life 
    through them, 

    so 
    could see 

    When 
    things 
    fell 
    apart, 

    still don't 
    have 
    to live 
    through me 

    Every 
    parent's 
    a parent, 

    when it 
    comes 
    to peace 

    never 
    was 
    a parent, 

    cause my 
    kids 
    had 
    to leave 

    It 
    always 
    seems 
    to be 

    that 
    you made 
    your choice 
    vital 

    My 
    spirit's 
    been 
    formed 

    like the 
    sun 
    hitting 
    vinyl 

    My 
    spinal 
    cord 
    stretched 
    from 

    one 
    God's 
    edge 

    Reac
    tion 
    so 
    intense 

    I became 
    a poor 
    wretch 

    Far 
    from a 
    stretch, 

    my feelings 
    so 
    empty 

    Con
    sidered 
    pure 
    joy 

    since it's 
    what 
    God 
    sent me 

    I don't 
    even 
    know 
    if you 

    can hear 
    me at 
    all 

    You 
    see me 
    as 
    a friend, 

    hands 
    on the 
    floor 

    Seem
    to me 
    you 

    a million 
    miles 
    away 

    Does
    n't 
    seem 
    to matter 

    what 
    words 
    say 

    You 
    sitting 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there 

    don't 
    even 
    know 
    if you care 

    But 
    you sittin' 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there, 

    I don't 
    even 
    know 
    if you 
    care 

    But 
    you don't 
    even 
    know 

    if you can 
    hear 
    me at 
    all 

    Soon 
    he's 
    bent, 
    hands 
    up on 
    the floor 

    Seem
    to me 
    you 
    a million 
    miles 
    away 

    But 
    it doesn't 
    seem 
    to matter 

    what 
    words 
    you 
    say 

    But 
    you 
    sittin' 
    in 
    heaven 
    up 
    there, 

    don't even 
    know 
    if you care 



    I'm have 
    time 

    I'm 
    gonna have 
    a good time 

    I'm 
    gonna have a 
    good 
    time

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      "

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
