Song lyrics

They found an empty bottle
On her window sill
The day her mother lost
Her sleeping pills
She was sick and tired
Of being invisible
Hard to see in colour
When you're miserable

Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world behind
So be strong enough
To hold onto us
We're still right here
By your side

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 an open door

Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world behind
So be strong enough
To hold onto us
It's just not your time to die

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

Dear God! Yeah!
God! Yeah!
Dear God! Yeah!
God! Yeah!

Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can't leave this world behind
Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika
We're still right here
By your side
So be strong enough
To hold onto us
You can't leave this world behind
Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika
It's just not your time to die
