A Bit Closer To Heaven

Lyrics by Andreas Nergård

I wake myself with haunted cries
Petrified but cool as ice
Oh and why say it is okay
To throw your life away
Soon my love I’m on my way

On and on I just can’t wait
(On and on I just can’t wait)
For a billion ways to ease my fate
Yeah
Why can souls become so cold
A piece of trash when life gets old
Wait for me I’m on my way

To you
Straight to you
Oh please
Take me a bit closer to heaven

Come ashore to tense disorder
Rest the fight when night gets closer
Calming my storm
The dreams are forever gone
Come ashore to tense disorder
Rest the fight when night gets closer
End of my storm
The pain is forever gone

Late at night I close my eyes
And see a life of breaking ties
A drowning man without a line
Into the deep he’s out of time
Soon then he’ll be on his way

To you
Straight to you
Oh please
Take me a bit closer to heaven

Come ashore to tense disorder
Rest the fight when night gets closer
Calming my storm
The dreams are forever gone
Come ashore to tense disorder
Rest the fight when night gets closer
End of my storm
The pain is forever gone

So when the night comes by you’ll close my eyes
Hold me tight as I refuse to fight
Lay me down to rest forever more
End my line
Oh God set me free
Oh God no
Oh God set me free
