Heaven

Verse 1
                      
Beyond the rules of religion
                  	
The cloth of conviction
                 
Above all the competition
                    
Where fact and fiction meet

                     
There's no color lines, casts or classes
                          
There is no fooling the masses
                     
Whatever faith you practice
                
Whatever you believe

Chorus
          
Heaven. Heaven.
                  
What the hell is Heaven?
                     
Is there a home for the homeless?
                     
Is there hope for the hopeless?

Verse 2
                       
Throw away your misconceptions
                    
ThereĀ“s no walls around heaven
                         
There's no codes you gotta know to get in
                  
No minutemen or border patrol

		     
You must lose all earthly 
possession
                 
Leave behind your weapon
                  
You cannot buy your salvation
              
There is no pot of gold

(chorus)

Bridge
                  
Heaven ain't got no prisons
		    
No government no business
		     
No banks or politicians
               
No armies and no police

Verse 3
 			
Castles and cathedrals crumble
                     
Pyramids and pipelines tumble
                   
The failure keeps you humble
                        
Leads us closer to peace
