Maybe Heaven's only a moment A speck of a memory on repeat And we're none the wiser For time is a concept concocted by fools And if Heaven's a moment Then I hope you're in Hell Strangled by all the moments you'll never get As the Harpies pluck at your dishwater eyes And lick the rotten marrow from your bones Forever feasting on your futile regret For the future you blew apart

Maybe Heaven's only a moment A speck of a memory on repeat And we're none the wiser For time is a concept concocted by fools And if Heaven's a moment Then I hope you're in Hell Strangled by all the moments you'll never get As the Harpies pluck at your dishwater eyes And lick the rotten marrow from your bones Forever feasting on your futile regret For the future you blew apart
