Heaven by Brett Dennen
Heaven lyrics
Beyond the rules of religion
The cloth of conviction
Above all competition
Where fact and fiction meet
There's no color lines, cast, or classes
There's no fooling of the masses
Whatever faith you practice
Whatever you believe
Heaven...Heaven....
What the hell is heaven
Is it a home for the homeless?
Is there hope for the hopeless?
There's no color lines or casts or classes
There's no fooling the masses
Whatever faith you practice
Whatever you believe
Heaven... Heaven...
What the hell is heaven?
Is there a home for the homeless?
Is there hope for the hopeless?
Throw away your misconceptions
There's no walls around heaven
There's no codes you gotta know to get in
No minutemen or border patrol
You must lose all earthly possesion
Leave behind your weapons
You can't buy your salvation
And there is no pot of gold
Heaven ain't got no prisons
No goverment no business
No banks or politicians
No armies and no police
Castles and cathedrals crumble
Pyramids and pipelines tumble
The failure keeps you humble
And leads us closer to peace
Heaven... Heaven...
What the hell is heaven?
Is there a home for the homeless?
Is there hope for the hopeless?
Is there a home for the homeless?
Is there hope for the hopeless?
