rain down mercy for the lost and lonely child for the liars and the losers the reckless and the wild there s no more use in pretending i know i never fooled you the deepest darkness i ve ever known comes from living like i do but i swear i m gonna knock on that gate even if it s all in vain i ll stand outside with my mouth wide open and drink the pouring rain i know there s some good left in this world i ve seen it shine in your eyes rain down salvation and keep my faith alive the harder we fall the closer we come to finding our hearts and the damage we ve done darling i ve held the devil s dirty hand but holding you now i know is heaven s last attempt won t you walk beside me you know i can t make it alone here the fields are dark and the wind is hard hard as stone roll out the sky oh and let me come home come home i wanna come home the harder we fall the closer we come to finding the light and the warmth of the sun all that i ve ever had i ve let slip through my hands but holding you now i know is heaven heaven
