Heaven's Gate - Della Mae

The shackles I wear not made from a chain

They make but a whisper in the dead of night

Without a sound I find myself bound

To wander the place where I was alive

And you, my friend, have come on an errand

I know that you have a story like I did

But no one can know, if you don’t show

The pain in your heart and the cry at your lips

I’m not from this place, I traveled from far

I came here after they ended the war

Tried to forget but when I closed my eyes

I saw blood on my hands and a gun on the floor

So it was here I put a knife to my breast

And here I will remain evermore

But you can go on, fix what is wrong

If you keep from the demons who knock at your door

Won’t you come back and see me again?

Won’t you come back someday?

I’ve tried, and I’ve tried to make my way from here

But I’m stuck at heaven’s gate

Stuck at Heaven’s gate

I know that you are not meant for my fate

You haven’t a heart that is made of stone

You’re warm and free, listen to me

I am a specter, and you are my son

Won’t you come back and see me again?

Won’t you come back someday?

I’ve tried, and I’ve tried to make my way from here

But I’m stuck at heaven’s gate
