Heaven's Gate
Armstrong Gun Lyrics

A jaded young man, dealt a hard hand in life
Friends disappeared a long time ago
Medicating through narcotics and liquor
An untimely end draws ever nearer
The young man yearns for meaning in life
Living each day with ball and chain
Never respected, forever rejected
The time bomb will detonate one day

Trapped, with no escape Tortured internally

Heaven's gate, heaven's gate
Where men and women would meet their fate
Heaven's gate, heaven's gate
Where men and women would meet their fate

He's approached by a group one day
They will give him purpose, they claim
Rid the young man of misery, make him an equal on their journey
He's overwhelmed and captivated
Meaning at last, a chance to be accepted
No more self loathing and misery
The young man is overjoyed and willing

Trapped, with no escape
Tortured internally

Heaven's gate, heaven's gate
Where men and women would meet their fate
Heaven's gate, heaven's gate
Where men and women would meet their fate

39 people would meet their fate
Down there in Heaven's Gate
Men and women, young and old
Blindly doing what they were told

Trapped, with no escape
Tortured internally

Heaven's gate, heaven's gate
Where men and women would meet their fate
Heaven's gate, heaven's gate
Where men and women would meet their fate
