Josh Woodward - Beyond the Sky Lyrics

I never meant to say I love you
I never meant to lead you on
But sometimes pride can get the best of me
And drag the rest of me along

We leave behind the stains of battle
We count the dead and grieve the loss
A civil war without a victor
I never really cared about the loss

If there's a town beyond the sky
Where they greet you by and by
I will stay down here and hide
No, I will never meet you in the light

I found the door that leads to nothing
I crossed the threshold once or twice
But there was nothing in the nothingness
Not just the absence of light

There was a whisper in the shadows
There was writing on the wall
And soon the curtains had been drawn apart
I braced my body for the fall

If there's a town beyond the sky
Where they greet you by and by
I will stay down here and hide
No, I will never meet you in the light

Please forgive me if I'm broken
It wasn't you who lit the spark
I've glued the pieces back together
As many times as I've fallen apart

If there's a town beyond the sunrise
I hope they let you through the door
But me, I'm walking down the darker road
At least I know what lies in store
