I’ll see you all in heaven soon We’ll all be wearing blue Underneath, as naked as ever The way we always intended I’m thinking, this is where we part ways Off to practice being ourselves Astral planes of each our own Gathering gemstone truths in silence Ninety-nine percent Similar brain chemistry as before But where is the cusp Where we stop recognizing each other When overwhelming time and knowing in knowing Becomes a gap too vast to trek We’ll meet there, anyway In spite of all the space between To gawk at each other’s beards and wrinkles Only when we’re lost like so Will we have arrived in heaven But it should be the same as before If not better, always better Nothing lateral or linear But outward, upward, onward Forward thinking Ghastly traps that rope us in It’s better this way, it has to be Screams raving logic I’m thinking, this is when we shake our heads This is when we bolt and run Into each other again with only Honest intentions We’re each other’s salvation Backlit by bonfires We’re all someone’s Messiah On days where clocks of ours lay stricken Suspended between parallels, again I’ll see you all in heaven there Without the faintest murmur Of ill-intended anything

We'll Be Wearing Blue
I’ll see you all in heaven soon We’ll all be wearing blue Underneath, as naked as ever The way we always intended I’m thinking, this is where we part ways Off to practice being ourselves Astral planes of each our own Gathering gemstone truths in silence Ninety-nine percent Similar brain chemistry as before But where is the cusp Where we stop recognizing each other When overwhelming time and knowing in knowing Becomes a gap too vast to trek We’ll meet there, anyway In spite of all the space between To gawk at each other’s beards and wrinkles Only when we’re lost like so Will we have arrived in heaven But it should be the same as before If not better, always better Nothing lateral or linear But outward, upward, onward Forward thinking Ghastly traps that rope us in It’s better this way, it has to be Screams raving logic I’m thinking, this is when we shake our heads This is when we bolt and run Into each other again with only Honest intentions We’re each other’s salvation Backlit by bonfires We’re all someone’s Messiah On days where clocks of ours lay stricken Suspended between parallels, again I’ll see you all in heaven there Without the faintest murmur Of ill-intended anything
