Matt DeMello - Heaven Can Be Replaced / Every Reason To

Heaven can be replaced
As a statue be defaced
By a whole and handsome face
Who is worth saving

Worth saving from the storm
From being tattered or being torn
Sent back to being born instead of aging
Who could say where my footsteps lead astray?
It sure as hell beats anyplace else I've stayed

When the dream of life was young
All was a victory to be won
Not a nerve meant to be stung by cynicism
For people by design, are faulty and unkind
Drinking up your blood like wine with criticism
I'm not sure how these thoughts could bring me doubt
But I think a friend like you could help me figure it out

A shouting voice drives a wooden stake through my spirit's drum
Like shards of glass from a windshield stained in driver's blood
Are these visions or pressures yet to be released?
Or are these shades of raw detail becoming dreams?
How will I know between the truth and accident?
Is it between my deeds and my intent?

I must remember
That pain is its own pleasure
It's not the will or weather
It's all in how you measure
Your friends to whom you're indebted
Oh you swear they won't regret it
Though you know
That they have every reason to
That they have every reason... to

It's not the time or season
It's what you make of reason
So strangers to whom I'm bound
Please don't fail me now
Though I know
That you have every reason to
That you have every reason
