[Verse 1]
Now comes the quiet
Without any peace
Sense of suspicion

The once angelic aura now induces grief
They took advantage of the weak

[Chorus]
Heaven gets what it wants
We're just trying to forget
Heaven takes some of us
We hold the pieces of what's left

[Verse 2]
Oh, life transforms to torture
With no retreat
As power consumes
We must confront the beast
You have been renounced
We question motives
There's always two sides
The story unfolds

[Chorus]
Heaven gets what it wants
We're just trying to forget
Heaven takes some of us
We hold the pieces of what's left

[Bridge]

They barely have enough
They hardly can get by
The meager give their last cent
For a chance in the sky
Why would paradise deny the impoverished?
Their promised land is only for the prosperous
Why do some feast while others starve?
The ones who sin always first to judge

[Refrain]
Heaven takes some of us
We're just trying to forget

[Chorus]
Heaven gets what it wants
We're just trying to forget (To forget)
Heaven takes some of us
We hold the pieces of what's left (What's left)
Heaven gets what it wants
We're just trying to forget (To forget)
Heaven takes some of us
We hold the pieces of what's left (What's left)

[Outro]
Heaven gets what it wants
Heaven takes some of us
Heaven gets what it wants
Heaven takes
