"Heaven" lyrics

Heaven is overrated

Fall back cried a broken voice out from the dark in your chest
Cause love's a danger-lust
Love is dangerous
And that's a wound you can't dress

Oh, but two shots and we hit the ground cause we got found in the sights
And in the crimson mess
I will find these words
Well, if it takes me all night

Cause they can break us
And rip us
And tear us apart
But I'll bring my will if you can bring me your heart

I'm gonna get burned
I'm gonna get raided
This lover's in half
Cause heaven's serrated

They're taking their shots
But we're silver plated
So let 'em burn, baby burn
Cause we won't cut out until we've made it

Three cheers for the broken dolls and for the splits in our seams
Cause all the remnant rags
Turn to battle flags
We're resurrecting our dreams

Well, so what we've got stitched up hearts and we keep dust in our eyes
But in the fire scene
We're the kings and queens
And we can light up the sky

Cause they can break us
And rip us
And tear us apart
But I'll bring the courage if you bring me the heart

I'm gonna get burned
I'm gonna get raided
This lover's in half
Cause heaven's serrated (Heaven is overrated)

They're taking their shots
But we're silver plated
So let 'em burn, baby burn
Cause we won't cut out until we've made it

Your breath is keeping time
I pour myself into every line
And it's a God damned cry that
I hope that you can hear

Gotta get this off my chest
Well, Jesus knows I can make a mess
But if I've got one hope
Well, I hope that you stay near

Well, damn it all I would give my blood
I only hope that my heart's enough
Well, tell me all that you're dreaming of
Won't you let me in take me baby love

(Hang on, oh hang on, city row, city row tonight)
(Well, heaven is overrated)
(Hang on, oh hang on, city row, city row tonight)
(Well, heaven is overrated)

I'm gonna get burned
I'm gonna get raided
This lover's in half
Cause heaven's serrated (Heaven is overrated)

They're taking their shots
But we're silver plated
So let 'em burn, baby burn
Cause we won't cut out, oh no...

Burned, I'm gonna get raided
So let 'em burn, baby burn
Cause I won't cut out until we've made it
