Why Wait For Heaven

We are hearing talk of better days
We are watching nothing make a change
So silent, past a break
Never noticed we were what’s at stake
The promise of Eden hides our fears
But while we’re here, why wait for heaven?
Ideally we could be free, why wait for heaven?
Your arms never have embraced us
Are you lying every time you face us?
Your power is shapeless
Our power has a million faces
I’m counting all the time, waiting in line
When will be my turn? I wonder what it’s worth
Between the stones and birds, I’m wasting a lifetime
We hide our fears, but while we’re here, why wait for heaven?
Why wait for heaven?
