I tried to understand [bad word] 
How certain things can happen 
I thought that if you strive for good like everybody should 
The angels will watch over you 
  
When the future has changed and your world is a mess 
And you find yourself down in the dirt 
When the sky is on fire and the heavens descend 
All you can do is just keep on breathing 
  
I wish 
That I could seal, that I could heal 
The wounds left in our wake 
I pray however much we bleed somehow there’s a new seed 
Cause angels will watch over you watch over you 
  
When the future has changed and your world is a mess 
And you find yourself down in the dirt 
When the sky is on fire and the heavens descend 
All you can do is just keep on breathing 
  
When you’ve lost all reasons why you should go on 
Try to find your way even if all hope is gone 
  
I tried to understand, [bad word] 
How this could happen? 
  
When the future has changed and your world is a mess 
And you find yourself down in the dirt 
When the sky is on fire and the heavens descend 
All you can do is just keep on breathing
