Fallen Kind Lyrics

How do I explain what heaven was like

I can't tell you the truth except we're not there now

Heaven was safe. Heaven was insight

Somehow I got to heaven but I don't know how

Heaven was honesty, Heaven was knowledge

Heaven was truth, it was love and peace

Heaven wasn't hiding. Wasn't hard to make the pledge

Heaven didn't come unnaturally

And if I told you I'm an angel

I'll bet you would believe

But would you understand the reasons

Why I had to leave

Though I wish I didn't have to

Leave it all behind

I guess I'm still an angel

Just the fallen kind

Woah, Woah, Just the fallen kind

How do I explain what flying was like

I can't tell you the truth and I can't do it now

Knowing who I was and the plan for my life

I forgot how to walk, grew estranged from the ground

The pains in my legs, of the feeling of earth

Walking feels mundane like I'm waiting for more

My wings are now fake, without value or worth

Standing up requires effort and my legs are now sore

And if I told you I'm an angel

I'll bet you would believe

But would you understand the reasons

Why I had to leave

Though I wish I didn't have to

Leave it all behind

I guess I'm still an angel

Just the fallen kind

Woah, Woah, Just the fallen kind

How do I explain what hell is like

I can't tell you the truth except you're not there now

Hell is losing heaven. No heaven insight

I wound up in hell but I wish I knew how

And if I told you I'm an angel

I'll bet you would believe

But would you understand the reasons

Why I had to leave

Though I wish I didn't have to

Leave it all behind

I guess I'm still an angel

Just the fallen kind

Woah, Woah, Just the fallen kind

Woah, Woah, Just the fallen kind

Woah, Woah, Just the fallen kind
