Heaven Crashed Down

It took a toll on mama
Oh, the things she wrote
Nothing quite like dying
Real, real slow
Our stairs were dark dark green
I used to cry there a lot
While the man of her dreams
Was up the stairs half gone

Those were the days when heaven crashed down
Hell showed up
I was just thirteen
Clinging to the middle ground

He was all we had
He was all I'd lost
The morning heaven crashed down
I grew up

It took a toll on me
Oh, the things I'd pray
Angrys not the word
No, no
It was more like rage
I hated everything but time
Especially those dark green stairs
They'd be the last stairs he'd ever climb
And the first stairs he'd ever come down dead

Those were the days when heaven crashed down
Hell showed up
I was just thirteen
Clinging to the middle ground

He was all we had
He was all I'd lost
The morning heaven crashed down
I grew up

I was just a little girl
Without a care in the world
Except you lying there
Oh, I hated you lying there

Heaven crashed down
Hell showed up
I was just thirteen
Clinging to the middle ground

He was all we had
He was all I'd lost
The morning heaven crashed down

I grew up
I grew up
I grew up
I grew up
