Good Things - Heaven Is Yours

We slept on the floor, shivering next to the door
We wanted to be the first ones to leave in the morning
Threw on our clothes and we grabbed all our things
A quiet goodbye to all the friends that we made
But I don't think we'll see them again

Tonight darling
I'll warm your bones when you shake from the cold
I'll hold your hair as your guts spill on the floor
I'll kiss your back as you're falling asleep
'Cause you're the only one I need
Heaven is yours to keep

Got in the car, doing 90 down to Long Island's crown
You don't even live there anymore
Caught a glimpse of your eyes in the corner of mine
A quiet reminder of why I'm alive
And I swear that I could stay like this forever, forever

Oh
I'll warm your bones when you shake from the cold
I'll hold your hair as your guts spill on the floor
I'll kiss your back as you're falling asleep
'Cause you're the only one I need
Heaven is yours to keep

But you're cold as a tomb and your lips have turned a darker shade of blue
And you said theres something calling out to you
"I know that you know I'll never be whole again
Every fairytale romance needs it's tragic end"

And then a crash
A symphony of shattered glass
I watched your body spray out through the windshield, displayed on the asphalt, a Pollock laid flat
And you didn't move at all
I dragged my legs into a crawl
I reached out my hand, watched the vultures circle 'round
We're running out of time
I know your mother would cry
If she could see the shreds of emptiness inside of your eyes
You were just like me
You always wanted to see what it'd be like to dive in with shoes made of concrete
But they're taking you now, the road becomes your sea
You've been ripped from my arms and now I've lost everything
Now the sirens are ringing, the angels are singing
They've opened the gates and they're calling your name
And as I watched you float away, a rush of calm came over me
Heaven is where you were always meant to be

Set fire to every lifeless hand and watch them burn down to ash
Lost in the silhouettes of a long forgotten romance
Our bodies intertwined as I make angels in the black
And I'll breathe life into you again with all the colors i bring back

Your spark lit the fire inside of my eyes and it will burn for the rest of my life
