Hello down there, from the other side
The land of air and light, where the waves go to die

If you’re wanting Heaven
Well, you’ll have to keep on going
‘Cause we are also looking up to where the sun is glowing
You think this is Heaven
Yeah, but we’re the ones all dying for our crimes
No, up here no one gets out alive


We live in the light of the sun
But it burns our skin as red as devils
The air is taking us apart piece by piece
Till we return to dust for shovels


People always look for Heaven in the wrong places
As if it’s just somewhere you go on retirement vacation
But a wise man once said that the Kingdom of Heaven is within
Try looking there and let me know when you find it

We’re going on a search for the real Heaven
A Heaven we don’t have to wait for till our lives are through
We’re finding out the real meaning of salvation
And finding out it’s better than anything we thought we knew

Look into the light
And not the kind that blinds you or burns out your eyes
The Spirit deep inside
Says, “Today you all can be with me in paradise”

On the other side
The other side
The other side
We’re breaking through the chasm to the other side
To Paradise
On the other side
The other side
See you on the other side
In Paradise
