"Heaven On Earth" lyrics

"Heaven On Earth"

Oh

Well, I grew up in silence
From silence I became my history, oh
They fed me fear and violence
They hooked me up to this reality, oh

Now, I'm not cursing anyone
They only did what they had done to them
But if you want to know where I am now
Then just breathe in and let it out
Yeah

When you are at the end of your rope
Come find me
Holding on to your last string of hope
Come find me
Open up your eyes
I'll show you what you're worth
Don't you know it's you and me
In this heaven on Earth?
Yeah

Well, I laid down my burden
The one where I had something I should prove, eh
And then I found my power
The one where I'm the mountain I could move, eh

So if you want to know where I am now
Then just breathe in and let it out

When you are at the end of your rope
Come find me
Holding on to your last string of hope
Come find me
Open up your eyes
I'll show you what you're worth
Don't you know it's you and me
In this heaven on Earth?

Don't you know that you are golden, yeah?
Don't you know that you are pure delight, baby?
It doesn't matter what they've painted on you
You can wash it all away tonight
Yeah

Oh... when you are at the end of your rope
Come find me
Holding on to your last string of hope
Come find me

Open up your eyes
And I'll show you what you're worth
Don't you know it's you and me
In this heaven on Earth?

Come on and open up your eyes
I'll show you what you're worth
Don't you know it's you and me
In this heaven on Earth?
