[Verse 1]
Home from the hospital
In the grey mist of morning
The pain is pouring and pulling you under
Written into a story
That's become a bloody bar fight
Heavier than God's own holy thunder

[Chorus 1]
Well, it's alright
No, we can't control the daylight
So we rush right in like a wrecking ball
Will the heavens catch us when we fall?

[Verse 2]
I'm a Louisville slugger
Aimed for the fences
While my oldest defenses keep me down
And I give my confession
Without disgrace or discretion
I will torch the kingdom outright, just to hold the crown

[Chorus 2]
But it's alright
No, we can't command the moonlight
So we rush right in like a wrecking ball
Will the heavens catch us when we fall?
[Verse 3]
We writhe in agony
For our precious little legacy
Love and mercy
Gasoline and matches
You say you've got a few bridges left to burn
And now the flickering flame
Is asking me a question
I can't find the lesson to be learned

[Chorus 3]
But it's alright
No, we can't control the daylight
Well, it's alright
No, we can't command the moonlight
So we rush right in like a wrecking ball
Will the heavens catch us when we fall?
