ThorbArt Presents
In the time of now
we all think to be ourselve
then like all the ones before
for sure a thought
awakens new dreams of hope
nope
or not like a rope dangling
off the limb of an old oak
fate finds fear in the heart
like rot or a fungus can start
if weakness prevails.

Heaven I have heard it said
is a place you don't have to get out of bed
you can laze or work or play all day
its up to you to find the way
say as you might the time is now
so go out there and find out how
the song your singing is like a choir
taking your spirit higher and higher
Heaven once was sung in a bar
by rich Americans with big black cars
taking them all around the world
letting big heads become unfurled
spewing out nonsense mixed with insight
showing three chords don't always bite
stealing some rhythms from African tribes
avoiding most troubles with discreet bribes.
Heaven was preached about so many times
by men and by women with one track minds
leading the sheep to slaughter they say
is the work of the devil one any given day
still they try to tend their flocks
pretending that they aren't stuck on rocks
like the other ships that pass in the night
fear of the unknown is a weapon all right
Heaven is that place you want to be
when torment and strife have swallowed thee
when the world around is like a fish bowl
you asked for a diamond and got lumped coal
so only when you open your mind
to all the wonder that you can find
the world around you and all the brethren
is the place that will provide you with heaven.
