My Final Heaven

Verse 1

You take to the promise

Of another year

And you swear that it’s never too late

But the days just get longer

And sleep is the best that you have

And you pray that the morning will wait

It’s pain or uncertainty

And that ticking fear

That time won't always appease

This hopeless believer

This impossible griever

You keep finding ways to please

The familiar reflection

That disappears

From the bottom of your empty glass

Is it just some illusion?

Or a possibility

That the midst of this darkness will pass?

I'd rather flyway

From the hold of these stairs

To the glow of a wide open door

I won’t need answers or meanings

Romance or its reasons

To fall in love once more

Chorus

In my final Heaven

Where I’m free, up high

In the tears of forever

In the luster of hope

I could fly

In the shyness of sorrow

Without fear to behold

In my final Heaven

Where I will never

Say goodbye

Verse 2

You get lost in those wrong turns

City nightlife and bars

No more shame as you drown your regrets

You look for some evidence

That there ever was a smile

Or a friend who won’t let you forget

All the dreams that will never be

All the memories of a child

All the words you could never find

All the laughter and curses

All the Chapters and Verses

All the things you left behind

No more pain and disbelief

Whenever I close my eyes

To escape just one last time

Chorus

Into my final Heaven

Safe in the ocean skies

Where no one can tame me

Under patience and grace

I will rise

Far away from the passage

Of an endless need

In my final Heaven

Where I will never

Say goodbye

In our final Heaven

Where we can finally say

Goodbye
