I will run the streets and hostile lands
I will touch the rain with all I have
I will breathe the air, just scream it loud
My feet will never touch the ground
Because the days they feel like ancient clocks
Like when kids grow up and learn to walk
Because your life is full of pure desire
A place so gloriously wired
The lights and sounds
Oh God this is such a mess
And it's like our world
But we're the last ones left
And the hair it stands
On the back of our necks
And I swear it shows
Heaven must be just like this
Do you see the hills beneath the clouds?
The stars and its to lead you out
Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere
And if you try you'll never care
And the love you had
When you were young
Is right outside for all to come
Because your life is full of pure desire
A life so gloriously wired
The lights and sounds
Oh God this is such a mess
And it's like our world
But we're the last ones left
And the hair it stands
On the back of our necks
And I swear it shows
Heaven must be just like this
If you see the light break through the clouds
And fire up the distant towns
Now the world will be begin
Exactly how it ends
When you call for help when you are lost
For evermore or what ever it costs
And the world will begin
Exactly how it ends
Please stay
Don't go
I've got you now
Are you curious?
Please stay
Played this song at my son's funeral. First concert he saw was these guys in Atlanta Ga at The Roxy. He almost lived to age 21. Died from so called friends who left him to die in his driveway from an overdose of "something". Athlete, Prom King, Scholar.....dead. This song reminds me of the way he lived life. I wish he could "Please stay..."
I have met tom last week,I told him that I love I empire and he told me back that the new angels and airwaves record will be like I empire but a bit faster.
And I told him about this song”heaven”,this song is everything to me and he told me back:”heaven it’s such a good song,I love that song I don’t think enough people talk about that song”.
This song is a MASTERPIECE,and when I have a bad day,it turns in a “good day”..
Thank u Tom,and thanks for this video...
The song sums up all the beautiful majesty of Christ's creation, before man fell and sin entered the world! The beautiful thing on earth are just a glimpse of what heaven will be like, a new Earth and a new Heaven, and again created from the Master's hand! Great song guy's!
sir, you've captured every single feeling that Tom and the guys put into this song and created a music video which sums up the whole concept of the music created by Angels and Airwaves since its inception. for this, I salute you.
Are you curious? Please stay, don't go, I've got you now...
I cannot describe how powerful those 11 words are to me. I wish to be buried to this song so that people can see what my heaven is like.
