Sitting in the back cause I still got Jack on my breath
Preacher man rambles, but I don't hear a word he says
I'm somewhere in the sky, but I ain't reached heaven
On cloud nine, service ends at eleven

I've fallen to grace, but still can't find an escape
I've taken it way too far this time
All I see is darkness when I'm in the light
Sunday morning, sending prayers to the man upstairs

Folding my hands, closing my bloodshot eyes
I'm so high, and she's the reason why
There's so much space between me and amazing grace
But I don't know what else to do, so I'm stoned in a church pew

She was an angel had a hole in her halo
Kept me walking that straight line
I held it together when we were forever
But that's the funny thing about time

You only get less of it the more that it goes by
And I believe the Lord's mad at me, so I'm here to ask Him why
I've taken it way too far this time
All I see is darkness when I'm in the light

Sunday morning, sending prayers to the man upstairs
Folding my hands, closing my bloodshot eyes
I'm so high, and she's the reason why
There's so much space between me and amazing grace

But I don't know what else to do, so I'm stoned in a church pew
It tortures me that she had to leave and that I'm all alone by her headstone
It should have been me is what I start to scream
I want to go

Lord, send me home
I've taken it way too far this time
All I see is darkness when I'm in the light
Sunday morning, sending prayers to the man upstairs

Folding my hands, closing my bloodshot eyes
I'm so high, and she's the reason why
There's so much space between me and amazing grace
But I don't know what else to do, so I'm stoned in a church pew
