I Wanna Go To Heaven

from The Kingdom Is On Fire by Sons of Perdition

/

lyrics

When this body grows weary and the end's feeling close, I wanna go to Heaven when I give up the ghost. I'm counting sparrows in darkening skies get swallowed by the clouds in my eyes. Beneath an old cypress, I wonder why in the earth we were brought up to lie. The sun shudders softly behind a cold moon. My breath bleeds out slowly 'til it fills up the room. I'm drawn to my grave like a moth to a flame. The temple makes itself a tomb. Sweet Jesus, I fear when this body is gone, there'll be nothing left but a pile of my bones. Though I sleep in the clay, don't forget me that day. Don't leave me down there all alone.
