When the other shoe drops When I meet that fated step When there's nothing left to stop That final draw on my last breath I will find Zen in my home (Yeah, yeah) I will make gods of my own (Yeah, yeah) In a sky of light and mirrors (Yeah, yeah) Where there's nothin' to atone And I'll paint the town a blue and red And all the rest of my favorite colors In a heaven in my head Nothin' like all of the others 'Cause my doubt moves fast On all these heavenly ideals And what is done is in the past And what is left is barely real I can say now without a shadow Of a doubt that you won't find Me waiting 'round for the gallows I'll be high upon my climb To something better than this Some place where I can carve my name And I'll never cease to exist And when I'm gone, it's all the same Sing out, sing out I'll give you something to believe Now let it all bleed out I'll wear my heart upon my sleeve, ooh-oh Sing out, sing out Every word for what it's worth And when these words ring out My heart will never leave this earth
