"Heaven Sent" lyrics

"Heaven Sent"

When his burning cigarette was put out on my arm
You said "I love you, son" I said "I love you, mum"
Burning cigarette, I was a kid so I stayed calm
I didn't know back then that I, I should turn and run
Turn and run
Turn and run

You call my name, I hear you say
You're heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Before the rage, you'd say to me
You're heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Heaven sent

So I'll bury all the shit that you have ever said
The way your shallow love would always fuck me up
Bury all the shit, the lies that live inside my head
I always knew the sun would rise and we'd do it all again
All again, all again

You call my name, I hear you say
You're heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Before the rage, you'd say to me
You're heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Heaven sent

You turn your back, you strike my cheek
You burn my heart beneath your feet
I'll bear the pain of fear and hate
So those I love are always safe

Shelter
A place where you are free
Shelter
Just for those close to me
Just for those close to me

You call my name, I hear you say
You're heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
(Heaven sent)
Heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent
Before the rage (Before the rage), you'd say to me (You'd say to me)
You're heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent (Heaven sent)
Heaven sent, heaven sent, heaven sent (Heaven sent)
