the other way to heaven.
if god is there, watching over us
does he see the greed, does he sense the lust?
does he feel the pain his creation makes?
does he understand why so many turn away?
and yet they all believe that they are welcome in heaven
in their minds they are martyrs, and they'll go
the other way to heaven
there's a man who thinks he's doing gods work
by causing pain and death and hurt
he takes young kids to a distant place
he enjoys his lust as he tortures and rapes
and yet he believes he will be welcome in heaven
he is gods vengeance, and he'll be welcome in heaven
there are those who strap explosives to themselves
or they plant a bomb to blow non-believers to hell
but they will never look upon god's golden face
they wont bathe in his glory; they wont feast in his grace
and surely they are not welcome in heaven
in their minds they are martyrs
but there is no back door to heaven
==============================
there are another two verses- read

Very nice, can i get chords for that? Anyway,i havent decided if i do believe in heaven yet but i'd say it's not likely to have a back door. Except the one Jesus uses cos that one has a red carpet. He isn't happy about it, or the press who camp outside. I had to answer this question because i dreamed all that strange stuff i just said. Sorry to be wasting your time by the way, it is a very cool song.

this lyric looks like you are doudtful of your faith.you need to answer this question yourself .All the things you mention are negative and represent only a small minority of people in a big world.Not every muslim is a suicide bomber not every person that enjoys the company of kids is a pervert I don,t know anyone that wishes to be a martyr.Do you really think god created pain or are you creating that pain for yourself.I have no religous beliefs and sometimes think that people that do beleive go looking for problems just to justify there own self pity.Sorry if ive insulted you it,s just the way i see it

Lovely poetry stuff - and relieved to see someone so eloquent explaining that Heaven as a concept can be hermetically sealed

Does it really matter? Front or back the criteria remains the same, which is a natural prerequisite...... You must be Dead.
Whats the Hurry? I'm sure we'll get there in the end.

if you found a backdoor and went in you would find yourself at the front gate...because there is no heaven..only a bunch of die hards..who would quickly push you to the back of the queue

good luck
