When Heaven Comes Down Lyrics

Total confusion- one final sin
Someone's religion and greed
Accidents happen, someone to blame
Who's got the answers we need?

I don't know who to believe
But I know who's gonna set me free
Cause I'll be waiting

When heaven comes down

Ashes to ashes, sorrow and shame
Look at the future again
Angels in heaven walking the streets
Searching for someone to blame

I don't know who to believe
But I know who's gonna set me free
Cause I'll be waiting

When heaven comes down
Until tomorrow
When heaven comes down

Cause I'll be waiting
When heaven comes down
Until tomorrow
When heaven comes down

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

to me this song maybe about corrupt church officials... and how the church is somewhat the basis of elaborate money operations... anyway this song has the most malevolent menacing powerful solo I've heard in my life, with the meanest riff backing it up

I thought this song is about when the angels come down from Heaven and bring back the believers to Heaven.
