Just for a moment I need heaven to be real
I can’t promise to go back to church
And I can’t promise to quit sinning
But God can you please make heaven real
I know we’re not supposed to say this part out loud
About how we know that we’ll never know
And maybe its just a collective coping mechanism
And isn’t that worth something too
But God can you please make heaven real
It doesn’t have to be for long
I mean I don’t know how boring it is to live in the clouds
With no cheesecake factory or Netflix and chill
I certainly wouldn’t want to spend my afterlife watching ants that eventually forget I exist
Just for a little bit
Just long enough for me to feel a salty breeze or see a butterfly
And think to myself, “That’s them”
Just long enough for me to get a peek
Just so I know they made it home safe
Are you there God?
Because they’re gone
And just for a moment I need heaven to be real
