Heaven Over our Heads

Count up the angels and then, how many died?
And how many heads they had to step all over just to get inside?
But it's alright
I said, "It's alright"

You counted cards, you cut the deck, but they rig the game
So I would hold you tightly to my chest
And I'd show no shame, no shame
I'd do it all again

And I just wonder sometimes
If Heaven is over our heads

But I had some fun and I made some love in exotic places
Though I may have forgot some names, I recall the faces
My dream
Out of reach

And I broke some promises and refused to make amends
And I had my heart broke seven times and I lost some friends
But it's alright
What's the matter in the end?

And I just wonder sometimes
If Heaven is over our heads
I just wonder sometimes
If Heaven is over our heads

I wanted to shine all of me
All of me
Even if my child was so lost
I wanted to shine all of me

Why must we struggle so as we try to do it right?
Just a bunch of cockroaches just running from the light
From the light
Shines upon us

And I may be stupid and I may be selfish and I may be wrong
Still, it's such a short time you would heal
And such a long time you'll be gone
Scattered to the wind

And I just wonder sometimes
I just wonder sometimes
I just wonder sometimes
If Heaven is over our heads
(All of me)
