"closer to heaven" lyrics

They say, "Love thy neighbor"
Unless they make you feel uncomfortable
They say, "Trust the Savior" (Swear to God)
There's no ulterior motive at all

I know people like you don't like to get called out
Yeah, people like you think you got it all figured out
You got your pride, and so do I
But it's ironic callin' it demonic
When you're the one who got this

Hate in your heart
Won't get you closer to Heaven
When did you start
Holdin' your faith like a weapon?
If you love your god, but your god don't love
I don't wanna hear it, don't wanna hear the
Hate in your heart
'Cause it won't get you closer to Heaven

I know times keep changing
But it's not the '50s anymore
Are you really prayin' for someone else's pain?
Strange you call it holy when I call it deranged

Sure talk a lot about gays, kinda like you're obsessed
Seems a little bit gay how it keeps runnin' through your head
Seems a little bit like you might have something to confess
Somethin' you repressed, just get it off your chest

Hate in your heart
Won't get you closer to Heaven (Yeah)
When did you start (When did you start)
Holdin' your faith like a weapon? (Oh)
If you love your god, but your god don't love
I don't wanna hear it, don't wanna hear the
Hate in your heart
'Cause it won't get you closer to Heaven

Closer to Heaven (Ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven)
Ooh (Ha-ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven)
Closer to Heaven (Ha-ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven)
Ooh (Ha-ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven; ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
Closer to Heaven (Ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven)
Ooh (Ha-ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven)
Closer to Heaven (Ha-ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven)
Ooh (Ha-ha, Heaven, ha-ha, Heaven; ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)

(Ha, closer, ha-ha, closer)
(Ha-ha, closer, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
