HEAVEN Lyrics

Even in Eden, I can’t deviate from indecision.

How many times must I try to get right with God

Before he gives up on my condition?

Do promises made in adolescence hold weight?

Does my fear of never seeing you dictate my fate?

I want to believe in forever,

But eternity isn’t long enough when it comes to you.

Heaven is the love I felt in your presence.

Heaven is the solace I find in the gift of remembrance.

Am I consecrated, despite how often I’ve contemplated?

If there’s a place where the streets are gold,

Where we dine from chalices adorned with every precious stone

I don’t want to go without you,

But if I stay, what will you do?

I don’t know why I’m alive,

But I’m alive, looking for a sign.

Heaven is the love I felt in your presence.

Heaven is the solace I find in the gift of remembrance.

Am I consecrated, despite how often I’ve contemplated?

Are you that bluebird

greeting me on my parent’s deck,

Or is it pathetic that I’m holding

Out for hope of a message?

Am I consecrated, despite how often I’ve contemplated?

I don’t want the sonnet’s I’ve wrote,

Or the pieces composed to let the love you left be in vain,

But the burning bush is blinding,despite how often it rains.

Heaven is the love I felt in your presence.

Heaven is the solace I find in the gift of remembrance.

Am I consecrated, despite how often I’ve contemplated?

You’d want me to figure this out.

I wanna keep my eyes open, even if I don’t know where i’m going.

Only death is certain.

So will I be worthy of a requiem once I’m embalmed?

Am I deserving of reprieve,

Or rosaries, stigmata and psalms?
