They talk about absolution But what you gonna do when the time has come? When they put you in a box, say a prayer and run? All wrapped up, your life is done Is that really want? You lived, you loved and all for what? How would you feel if they forgot? Their lives resuming while you rot Heaven can wait if flesh must pay the price The skin I live in will hold the land of the sky The time has come to hold me like the pages Of your books hold the stars above Your universe sits in my hands And now mine shall be yours my love So if it's really time to leave I choose to resist finality To you my skin I do bequeath And we'll transcend reality Heaven can wait if flesh must pay the price The skin I live in will hold the land of the sky If you turn a blind eye, then you might as well forget All the loves of life are as good as dead If all mankind are destined to decay What good is life when it ends that way?
