Heaven's Got a Back Door

But I'm through feelin' sorry

For the things that I can't choose

If I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

Heaven's got a back door, too

Out of the walls, I heard the voices of the preacher

Tellin' me all the reasons why I'd die alone

I've never been your perfect son nor favorite daughter

So, I sit and dwell on all the things I know are wrong

Hide and wait

Hide and wait

For it

To be gone

I'm through feelin' sorry

For the things that I can't choose

'Cause if I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

When will I stop runnin'

From the things I know are true?

If I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

Heaven's got a back door, too

I've never been on the same sidewalk as a steeple

May we take notice in regard to the unknown

I don't know whether to press me, father or the people

I've never been a perfect soul, oh

Hide and wait

Hide and wait

For it

To be gone

I'm through feelin' sorry

For the things that I can't choose

If I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

When will I stop runnin'

From the things I know are true?

If I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

It's not your time to go wasting

And it's all about your timing

When I wake up to leaves on the ceiling

Then I wonder why you stay

I'm through feelin' sorry

For the things that I can't choose

And if I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

When will I stop runnin'

From the things I know are true?

But if I made it this far being who I am

Maybe Heaven's got a back door, too

When will you?

Got a back door too

Heaven's got a back door, too

And I'm runnin' from you

And I'm runnin' through

Heaven's got a back door, too, yeah
