I used to believe Heaven was bulletproof
Only God can turn a red light blue (only God can turn a red light blue)
Been cutting me deep, dying to talk to you
Only love can push the blade right through
This love's an orphan calling on deaf ears
And there's no afterlife, but if there is
It's late in the nighttime, so it's the right time
For sleep talking, sleep talking
And now the hot shot dead
Buried under each and every word unsaid
24 hours just go by, God bless
'Fore we let the ghost get away
One last communion, babe
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
So I let it go when nobody else around
I couldn't watch forever fall face down
So I turned my head the second it hit the ground
And I felt it, but it made no sound
This love's an orphan calling on deaf ears
And there's no afterlife, but if there is
It's late in the nighttime, so it's the right time
For sleep talking, sleep talking
He was a grand old age
Oh, yes, I know that nothing broke can stay
But I couldn't bring myself to turn that page
Before I dropped a kiss on the grave
One last communion, baby
One last, one last
One last communion, baby
Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh
It was a childish game
Who can light a candle in the crying rain
No one could know about the mess we made
I'm scrubbing, praying that the blood don't stain
I only whisper your name
For one last communion, baby
One last communion, baby
Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Mmm, mm-mm, mm-mm
