Heaven

1. “Heaven”

All those little crimes, as small as they were
they blew my mind
All those little crimes, they just added up and I did my time
And everything you said filled up my crazy little head
And I hung on to every breath;
I fell so hard beside you in my bed

I haven’t been to heaven in years
and it hasn’t been the same since

Maybe yesterday was a forgotten child no one would claim
Maybe yesterday I just lined them up to play my game
And now the table’s turned and
I’m the one who’s getting burned
And now you’re riding on my wave and it’s not me,
it’s you I want to save

I keep looking back at all the sins I tried to hide
I keep looking back and they’ve tainted everything in sight
And I’d do anything to cleanse you of my sting
And I will turn around and leave
if you’d be better off without me

I haven’t been to heaven in years
and it hasn’t been the same since
