lyrics
Why keep heaven waiting?
Why not see it now?
What's the point in wasting all this time?
Why keep heaven waiting?
I could be looking down
At all these fruitless mountains I would climb
Surely god can forgive my impatience,
Just a lost little child he won’t burn
And if he won’t just come down here and save us,
Tell me why I must wait for my turn,
When I have run out of reasons to live
I’ve given all that I can give
Send me an angel
Why keep heaven waiting?
I need to know the truth
Why aren’t we just dancing to our deaths?
Sit and watch us fading
Never given proof
Why not stop this sick & twisted test?
Surely god can forgive my impatience,
In this cruel little world he designed
And if I can forgive his complacence
Does his punishment still fit my crime,
When I have run out of reasons to live
I’ve given all that I can give
Am I ungrateful?
When I listened to all of the lies
Cried all the tears I can cry
Send me an angel
And what if you’re wrong?
What if there’s no one waiting?
No one I’m disobeying,
No one to hear me praying.
Why keep heaven waiting?
I have run out of reasons to live
I’ve given all that I can give
Am I ungrateful?
Cause I listened to all of the lies
Cried all the tears I can cry
Send me an angel
Or let me die
Why not see it now?
What's the point in wasting all this time?
Why keep heaven waiting?
I could be looking down
At all these fruitless mountains I would climb
Surely god can forgive my impatience,
Just a lost little child he won’t burn
And if he won’t just come down here and save us,
Tell me why I must wait for my turn,
When I have run out of reasons to live
I’ve given all that I can give
Send me an angel
Why keep heaven waiting?
I need to know the truth
Why aren’t we just dancing to our deaths?
Sit and watch us fading
Never given proof
Why not stop this sick & twisted test?
Surely god can forgive my impatience,
In this cruel little world he designed
And if I can forgive his complacence
Does his punishment still fit my crime,
When I have run out of reasons to live
I’ve given all that I can give
Am I ungrateful?
When I listened to all of the lies
Cried all the tears I can cry
Send me an angel
And what if you’re wrong?
What if there’s no one waiting?
No one I’m disobeying,
No one to hear me praying.
Why keep heaven waiting?
I have run out of reasons to live
I’ve given all that I can give
Am I ungrateful?
Cause I listened to all of the lies
Cried all the tears I can cry
Send me an angel
Or let me die

Just a fun album from start to finish. Discovered through the first animated video release and I've been loving what I've heard since giving it my full attention.

An eclectic mix of songs, but in a good way. Many songs are jaunty and catchy. To me they invoke a sense of adventure. Perfect for D&D night.
