Heaven Lyrics by Olivia O’Brien
One day all the people thought life was too scary
So they made up stories of angels and fairies
Said just keep believing till you’re dead and buried
Don’t lose your faith
And while you’re waiting
Do it by the book
Just go to work and get married
Don’t think too hard
Just do what’s customary
Forget that someone made it up
It’s all imaginary
‘Cause if we don’t go to Heaven
Where the hell does it all go?
Is everything just nothing?
Is it all just one big show?
If ashes turn to ashes
We’re all just made of dust
Would you rather live forever
Or let this just be enough?
It has to be enough
I don’t want to think about what it all could mean
I’ll distract myself with shiny things and paper made of green
Wake up every morning and forget about my dreams
I won’t watch the news or go to school
I’ll stick to my routine
‘Cause if we don’t go to Heaven
Where the hell does it all go?
Is everything just nothing?
Is it all just one big show?
If ashes turn to ashes
We’re all just made of dust
Would you rather live forever
Or let this just be enough?
It has to be enough
‘Cause if we don’t go to Heaven
Where the hell does it all go?
Is everything just nothing?
Is it all just one big show?
If ashes turn to ashes
We’re all just made of dust
Would you rather live forever
Or let this just be enough?
It has to be enough
