Bottom Of Heaven

from Great Pig by Ben and Lenny

/

lyrics

hey, this nightmare…it’s awfully potent
bed of flowers…but no roses
and this feeling…it’s awfully vivid
waited hours…still can’t get in
I know it’s getting harder these days
it was hard where it started a long way away
in the town you grew up in
the top of the mountain
the waterfalls led to the bottom of heaven
I know you’re getting meaner and meaner
but it don’t bother me much if you can believe it
the town that grew over you
held you under
sounds so much worse than the town I grew up in
have you seen it flying over?
I heard screams…it’s a natural thing to be totally, completely scared
and I know it’s getting harder these days
it was hard where it started a long way away
in the town you grew up in
the top of the mountain
the waterfalls led to the bottom of heaven
I know you’re getting meaner and meaner
but it don’t bother me much if you can believe it
the town that grew over you
held you under
sounds so much worse than the town I grew up in
hey, this nightmare…it’s not helping
must be nice where the sun’s never shining and moon’s never melting
and we’re never reminded of star-spangled lies
getting wrangled and mangled and tangled in time
in the sky we bowed down to
the last living wonder
the cannonballs bled through our wide eyes like thunder
and I know it’s getting harder these days
it was hard where it started a long way away
in the town you grew up in
the top of the mountain
the waterfalls led to the bottom of heaven
