The view gets so lonely Looking down from heaven's gates Into the wasteland we've become The morning sun will all but wake the dead Throw open the coffin door You've been buried alive Stand up, tell the world Your eyes are open The earth will tremble as we walk The dead stand to their feet Raise your eyes Search the skies for a sign And pray Oh, God I can't quite shake this The world is creeping in Just put me back in the ground In the ground Oh, I'm surrounded by these demons Lord come rescue me I'll stand and fight With angels by my side Your love is loud and deafening But God this cross gets hard to bear
