God save me
Hey, where is the way to heaven’s hell
That’s what I ask when I feel broken
Look around what’s happening abounds
And listen to the frequency of a sound
Of the beat, of a heartbeat, of your death beat
Don’t close your eyes
And pray all the night
Try to call all angels
To save our lives
How do you feel now?
After all fails in love
Embraced by devil’s arms
Look around what’s happening abounds
And listen to the frequency of a sound
Of the beat, of a heartbeat, of your death beat
Don’t close your eyes
And pray all the night
Try to call all angels
To save our lives
Let me get out of here
Let me get out of here
Let me get out of here
Let me get out of here
Save me
Don’t close your eyes (Stay awake)
And pray all the night (Say your prayer now)
Try to call all angels (Angels above)
To save our lives (Save our lives)
Don’t close your eyes (Don’t close your eyes)
To save our lives
