Lady In The Sky

Garden flowers turned red by blood from the sky

Bullets fly as the anger in my heart begins to rise

Pulling over to the side of the road

There's a gun in my pocket and I won't let go

Going out in a blaze of glory they are all gonna pay

For everything they ever said

For all the things that they so easily forget

What I do isn't for me it's for a greater purpose

But you don't understand and won't even try

Only a lady in the sky sees me and her tears fall

She was the one that held me back on that day

One moment in eternity when the gun was at my head

I know the ways of struggle and pain

But the ways of mercy and peace

That's out of my range

Some future presence calling out my name

With the voice of an angel, who are you?

I want to know what is was that kept the trigger cocked

Ready to blow I had to put the weapon down

And even the midst of hating my life

I somehow found love in the dark of my mind

Emeralds in her eyes she wears a golden crown

As I waltzed with my murderer, she was there

Watching out that I just wouldn't die

So many times people have said that you hate women

This is only half true, some ladies are like that

Getting under my skin I want to kill them so bad

But I know I can't I gotta respect their gifts

And I know that there is one for me

Who holds my hope as well as my thoughts and dreams

Now as the time draws near when you are near

I wish I would have died not to disappoint you

Not wishing for those emerald eyes to shed tears

Because as they fall they become like blood

Falling on the flowers of my garden grave

Though maybe you are there for some reason

But until then I'll be hear

Bleeding from the wounds waiting for my lady in the sky
