[Verse 1]
Pain 'cause it'll never be the same
This world will just forget your name
But I will never be the same, oh
Why is there just an end to life?
I hope that it feels alright
I hope that the end is nice, mmm

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't understand it
I don't know who planned it
I can't seem to handle
All the memories and change
I don't understand it
I know I can't stand this
I hate knowing nothing
Will ever be the same

[Chorus]
Are you closer to heaven?
Are you closer to heaven?
Do you think I'll be let in?
Tell me, are you closer to heaven?
'Cause I need time
'Cause I need time
[Verse 2]
I've seen so many places and faces from chasin'
A dream that no one said I could have
But none can replace or take away all the days
And memories that we once had

[Chorus]
Are you closer to heaven?
Are you closer to heaven?
Do you think I'll be let in?
Tell me, are you closer to heaven?
'Cause I need time

[Outro]
I'm not alright, I don't feel fine
I'm sick of watchin' everybody age with time
As they lose their sight, they lose their mind
I'm sick of always feeling like I'm losing mine ('Cause I need time)
I'm not alright, I don't feel fine
I'm sick of watching everybody age with time
As they lose their sight, they lose their mind
I'm sick of always feelin' like I'm losing mine ('Cause I need time)
('Cause I need time)
