lyrics

I got time and I’m full of hate
Loaded on ketamine and heartbreak
Nothing has been the same since you’ve been gone

And every night’s a little bit longer
And every drink is a little bit stronger
My peace of mind ain’t peaceful at all

By the time they got to the scene of the crime
My love was dead and the killer was crying
He put a pistol up to his temple and smiled

Oh I was born to serve the savior
To make sure Jephtha’s promise is paid for
Now that my job here is done…”

I’m going to heaven
That’s a fact
Oh I’m going to heaven
And I won’t come back
I’m gonna laugh and I’ll praise my way to heaven
And then he blew out his brains

I went home and spent that night
Trying to grieve that love of mine
All I could think was how to get to that bastard

You see, blood and bones are easy to hurt
But that son a bitch left both on earth
So I’ll find a way come hell or holy water

So I took some pills and went down to hell
Brought some wine for the devil himself
He said “that prick isn’t here, he’s up in the kingdom”
So I made a deal if I spent some time
Pouring bleach in a couple sinners’ eyes
He’d send me on a bullet train to the lord
And I can’t wait to knock knock knock down heaven’s door

Cause I’m going to heaven
No matter what they say
Oh I’m going to heaven
Even God won’t get in my way
He can scream and he can pray but I’m not leaving
Till the pearly gates are crimson

Well like a bat out of hell I shot up the stairs
From a song that we won’t mention
With a gift that my buddy Lucy gave me, a polished 1911
St. Petey was shaking and cried “Excuse me sir you can’t cut the line”
I said “Cute little bark, I guess all dogs do go to heaven”

A laugh was shaking the gate from the other side
The big man himself was standing there approximately 4 foot 5
He said “good to see you son, why’d you come to Kingdom Come?”
I snapped “Hey Giggles, you know exactly what he’s done”

Well as a business man you should understand handling business
So just step aside or I’ll fill these clouds with blood, I promise
I’m not here for you so move or I’m gonna make you
And you know a kingdom without the king is just dumb
He said “No. You see son, you’re just confused with a capital K”
Yeah your day will come but right now this is all just a big mistake
They say much dreaming and many words are meaningless, so fear me.
I said what?
He said “I don’t know… let’s get you out of this hole.”

I’m not going to heaven
As far as I can tell
I’m not going to heaven
And I was never in hell
When I opened my eyes that love of mine was laughing
She said you’re having one hell of a dream
Goddamn ketamine…
Who put the mean in ketamine
I hate ketamine
