[Intro]
[Chorus]
So Welcome to Heaven,
Just a state of dumb contentment
Sitting all alone in blackness floating on
A cognizant cloud of ash is all
We are in this bitter alternative
Where our spirit comes back it teaches lessons to those
who live on and on and on and on
In a second world, it s hell is all...
N.C.
So welcome to heaven.
[Interlude]
[Verse]
Slack jawed and simple angels staring off
Into the infinite
Into the white abyss
Wrapped up in memories of sin and stoned
Irreverence
How do they still uphold
[Pre-Chorus]
this corrupt membership in a field of unworthy souls
tell your God never sit I ll yield when he s told
[Chorus]
N.C.
You re not welcome in heaven
In this state of dumb contentment
Where you re alone in blackness floating on
A cloud of ash you don t belong
At all in this bitter alternative
Where all spirits kicked back
Teach truth to those
who live on and on and on and on
Not overjoyed you came along
[Bridge]
With everyone s eyes rolling up
Into the backs of their hollow skulls
Try as we might we ve tried to stop
but no one gets it makes no sense
[Verse]
Peel back green earth it covers up the door
Under our feet and soar
down to the underworld
he ll wait again in the same place he always is
wishing he never lived
wishing he d die again
[Pre-Chorus]
He ll beg, never changing at all
been the same for the last million years
Let him bawl not the first time you ve brought him to tears...
[Chorus]
N.C.
So welcome to heaven
just a state of dumb contentment
Peeling back skull, an ear, an eye, a tongue
A cognizant cloud of ash among
Your vengeance cause here, yeah, it s all you ve got
Just your spirit living on just to teach him about
your own loss... he caused it all
Your heaven s his hell and you re not gonna stall
[Outro]
Eyes not rolling up
Into the back of your vengeful skull
just staring straight, deep, infinite
and he doesn t try...to apologise
hasn t lost his mind
that s why he still cries
