[Verse 1] Sunday suit Collar tight as a noose Passed the plate They passed on me too Eyes down at the table Like I wasn’t in the room My name in their prayers But my face erased from the family glue [Chorus] I was cast out of heaven For the crime of being me But I found my family in the feedback Found my church in the key of E Hands up Stage lights We’re shouting Every outcast harmony I was cast out of heaven But my band raised hell to rescue me [Verse 2] Mom said “love you” With a careful little “but” Dad slammed scripture Like a door that never shuts So I packed one bag And this broken secondhand guitar Rode night buses Cheap clubs Sang my heart in every bar [Chorus] I was cast out of heaven For the crime of being me But I found my family in the feedback Found my church in the key of E Hands up Stage lights We’re shouting Every outcast harmony I was cast out of heaven But my band raised hell to rescue me [Bridge] Blood turned its back But these strangers stayed They knew every scar Before I said my name They tuned my silence Turned it into sound Said “you’re safe right here” (hey!) “This is holy ground” [Chorus] I was cast out of heaven For the crime of being me But I found my family in the feedback Found my church in the key of E Hands up Stage lights We’re shouting Broken boys Proud and free I was cast out of heaven But this loud Loud love adopted me
