V5

[Verse 1] Heaven drew a silver line Clean and quiet Straight and fine I traced it with my eyes Not feet Let the angels watch me cheat Stared at every warning sign Turned them all into designs Framed my fear like sacred art Hung it in my rusted heart [Chorus] Hell has no gate Yet here I am Walked myself in Hand in hand With every choice I never made Every truth I let decay To know what’s right Then look away That’s the ghost that owns my name Hell has no gate Yet here I am Here I am Here I am [Verse 2] I lit candles Stayed outside Blessed the brave But would not fight Sang the hymns of better days Knee-deep in my quiet shame Prayed for someone else to bleed For the change I said I’d need Moral words like winter smoke Fading as the real ones choke [Chorus] Hell has no gate Yet here I am Walked myself in Hand in hand With every choice I never made Every truth I let decay To know what’s right Then look away That’s the ghost that owns my name Hell has no gate Yet here I am Here I am Here I am [Bridge] No more mirrors Only flame (only flame) Step through fear Step through shame (through the shame) If virtue lives It moves It bleeds It’s teeth and tears Not pretty creeds (oh) [Chorus] Hell has no gate I turn around One brave step can burn it down Every silence that I kept Melting as I finally step To know what’s right and choose the pain That’s the way out of this place Hell has no gate I walk away Walk away Walk away
