Intro

,,, x2

Hello in heaven

Am I coming in clearly?

Can you see me down below?

Excuses I'm choking on

My candles of black are burning,

And drowning waters taking my best friend away

Yeah

My best friend away

Yeah

I really can't understand now what I'm crying for

 I wish you'd just stand up, get up now, and open up your sewn-shut eyes

While I'm standing here, yeah

Chorus

Every time I close my eyes, I see

 Your eyes go under the waves into the fatal sea

 It's killing me, it's killing me

I'll cut that rope from my throat

(from my throat)

,,, x2

So here is to let you know,

I never walked away

I wish you'd just stand up, get up now

And open up your sewn-shut eyes

While I'm standing here (yeah)

Chorus
