Forget About Heaven

Flotsam and Jetsam

Compositor: Edward Carlson / Eric Braverman / Eric Knutson / Jason Ward / Kelly David Smith / Michael W. Gilbert

When the sun's gone
Then they cry, laughing as they die
They can't look into your eyes
Moonlight makes it all so clear
Peirces the skin without tears
The writing on the wall's been smeared

Tragedy, comedy
Bite the hand that set 'em free
Same old song with a different beat
Comedy, tragedy

Forget about heaven
And the book of fear
Forget about heaven
We're staying here

Getting so high but staying so low
Stumbling, look out below
Halfway's too far to go

Forget about heaven
And the book of fear
Forget about heaven
We're staying here

Beliefs, disaster
Domination by persuasion
Nightmare is after
Your ruined faith beckons grace

Hold their heads down
When kneeling to pray
Heaven lies the other way
Cheated angels turned away
Forget about heaven
And the book of fear
Forget about heaven
We're staying here

Forget about heaven
Forget about heaven
Forget about heaven
