Heaven's Above

The air is thick,
The sky is dark,
I can't see a thing,
I can't hear a thing,
I can't breathe a thing,
All that I know is gone,

I see the heaven's above,
My heart beats slowly,
My breaths low,
My world as I know is fading,
Fading slower and slower,
As I take my final breaths,
My world I awake from,
I awake in a whole new one,
As I see the heaven's above,

My eyes closing slowly,
My breath being taken,
From the angel of death,
My soul going to heaven or hell,
I don't know which one,
I made so many sins,
I can't even count them all,

My world as I know of,
Is now fading away,
My eyes closes,
My breaths stop,
My heart stops,
I lay here waiting for God to accept me,

My soul stuck in between two worlds,
I blame the sins I made,
The sorry's I didn't mean,
The arguments I had with my family,
I forgive them all,
Especially myself,
God please accept my sins and my souls.

R.I.P to David Bowie, May you rest in peace
