When Heaven Crashes

by No Need For A Name   Dec 15, 2007


Night has fallen here, in the beautiful sky
Stars are crawling back, crawling back
Back and forth, reds and oranges ignite
Looks like a heart attack, heart attack
From inside that victims chest
It is beautiful, beautiful
Says the sky, it is at its end
Isn't it beautiful, beautiful

And angels sing a song of sorrow
And explosions down on earth just borrow
Our lives
Borrow our lives

(Chorus)
And with the light from the stars
I can see everything
Crashing and burning
And with the love from the heart
I can feel nothing
That would cause hurting

Take it back, all the laws we've broken
Seven livelihoods, livelihoods
Commanded, ways that we've misspoken
Take away the good, away the good
Don't bother, to try and save me enough
I love this death, love this death
It's no use, so I'll just make my love
Until this breath, until this breath
Runs dry, with one final kiss to you
To taste your lips, taste your lips
Heaven or hell, it seems like the right thing to do
Your little angel kiss, angel kiss

(Chorus)
And with the light from the stars
I can see everything
Crashing and burning
And with the love from the heart
I can feel nothing
That would cause hurting

So tell me why, tell me why
These makeshift angels sleep so softly
Tell me why, tell me why
The words they sing just mean nothing
Tell me why, tell me why
When heaven crashes I'll be smiling
Tell me why, tell me why
My angel here she sleeps so softly

(Chorus)
And with the light from the stars
I can see everything
Crashing and burning
And with the love from the heart
I can feel nothing
That would cause hurting

    This was a excellant poem. The context was true and the fllow was good and the rhyme as well. You have put forth again your emotion an it was excellant. There is nothing in this poem that I would want to change. Good Job.

    This is amazing! It was very emotional and expressive. I especially love the chorus although my other favorite part is the last non-chorus stanza. I also thought you chose the perfect words to repeat. The flow was good. I usually try to give suggestions of improvement but have no desire to change anything about this one.
    5/5 <3 and I would LOVE to hear this as a song.

    "Take it back, all the laws we've broken
    Seven livelihoods, livelihoods
    Commanded, ways that we've misspoken
    Take away the good,"
    - Love those lines! Wonderfully thought - out

    As usualy I'm not quite sure I can completely comment on your piece here, but I can tell you from what I see (and hear in my head, haha) it seems to be a wonderfully written piece. I'd enjoy hearing one sometime? Maybe. (: It'd let me know if you're as good a lyricist as an actual writer.
