Verse 1
They found an empty bottle
on her windowsill
The day her mother
lost her sleeping pills
She was sick and
tired of being invisible
Hard to see in color
when you're miserable
Chorus 1
Veronika Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world be----hind
So be strong enough to hold onto us
We're still right here by your side
Post chorus: Dm-- x4
Verse 2
No one ever thought
that she was capable
And the damage done
is irreversible
Now she clings to life
inside a hospital
Like she's trapped
inside a frozen waterfall
Always said her life
was never meant to be
Stuck here living
someone else's dream
Well beyond your window
there is so much more
Even every prison has a open door
Chorus 2
Veronika Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world be----hind
So be strong enough to hold onto us
it's just not your time to die
Guitar solo
Dm--Am--Gm--F--Gm-Em-- x4
Bridge
And while the angels sleep
All of the devils are awake
Waiting to steal your love
Right outside of Heaven's gate
And all the sacred hearts
can't numb the feeling from the pain
Cause when the drugs don't work
you're gonna curse His holy name
deny you!!!
deny you!!!
deny you!!!
deny you!!!
