Hotline to Heaven

(Cartoon sound effects)
Hey turn the tv down for a second baby
Okay Daddy
(phone ringing) See what Nonna's doing
(phone ringing) C'mon
(Angelic Choir) Oh Weird
You've reached the Hotline To Heaven
If you are calling about admission
Or problems with the gate
Please press 1 for Saint Peter (nope)
If you're a soul currently residing in Heaven
And need to speak with an accommodations expert
Please press 2 (nah)
If you know your parties extension
Please press 3 (wish I did)
For our dial-by-name directory
Please press 4 (probably playing bingo)
If you'd like to leave a message
For a soul currently residing in Heaven
Please press 5 (yep)
To repeat (phone beep)
We are currently experiencing
A higher-than-normal call volume
Your call is very important to us
Please stay on the line
And an angel will be with you shortly
In my mind I see ya face
But it's always just out of focus (you there)
If Heaven had a phone
I would call you this very moment (hey)
You'd probably tell a joke
And then ask why we haven't spoken (sorry)
I'll blame my job and the kids or something that was broken
There's always a reminder of you
A little token
Love ain't an emotion it's something we should be showing (ha)
Every day every chance we get overdosing (right)
Drink it likes it potion until the casket is closing
Never hold back
Things I wanna say
Cause I know that
Regrets a mother fucker
Never hold back
Ya always on my mind (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
When I used to believe we had
More time to relax
My anxieties peaking
My nervousness at its max
Every day I'm battling with feelings
That I met my match
How can I tell you it's this bad
When I miss a conversation
Smoking a little La
Telling you lies to save you
From not feeling responsible
To be in my situation
I held back for too long
I'm putting in the call
It's too late they move on
Ain't that how it always happens
And before you get a chance to explain
It's like I can't remember your face or your name
Without feeling some type of way
Nostalgia's the enemy
And now it hangs on every word that I say
Like what I'm gone say
Like what I'm gone say
Shit I don't know
See all I know is I miss you
And I regret if the message don't get through
So I'm a hit the hotline sit back
And just go through the menu
Never hold back
Things I wanna say
Cause I know that
Regrets a mother fucker
Never hold back
Ya always on my mind (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
Life's a celebration
So why is death to be different (different)
In life we laugh and love them
But in death we cry and miss them
Grief is just a symptom from the loss of someone living
Make you woulda coulda
Shoulda did but then you didn't (preach)
There's only 5 steps to the loss of someone you love
But they can't predict the order
Or the step which you'll be stuck
An ever changing process calculated by the day
Each day a reminder with new challenges to face
You might pick up a shirt and smell the scent of some perfume
Expect to see her knitting
When you walk inside a room (hello)
Sometimes you think you see her out the corner of your view
Got you looking at your family like
Did you see her too
The fortunate will know it's coming
Get to see them through (lucky)
While the rest will get a call
Probably wishing they'd have knew (what's wrong)
They'll sit in disbelief
Like man I know this isn't true (stop lying)
Now ask yourself a question (what)
Which of them is you
Never hold back
Things I wanna say
Cause I know that
Regrets a mother fucker
Never hold back
Ya always on my mind (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
Cherish the time that you've been given
Cause death is real hard to swallow
When you treat the ones you love
Like they'll always be tomorrow
One day ya'll together
The next day just didn't follow
You can beg and plead
But understand that time is borrowed
Every second you waste
Is a chance that you could've had
Spending time with your family
Your friends or better half
Love them while they living
Like you'd love them if they passed
Regrets a mother fucker
Any day can be your last
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back
Never hold back
Cause I know that
Cause I know that
Cause I know that
Cause I know that (your)
One of a kind and I say it in these rhymes
