Letter Never Sent Lyrics

It's been pretty simple so far
Vacation in Athens is calling me and knock, knock,
Knock on wood, I thought I'd left you behind
Heaven is yours, heaven is yours
Heaven's yours where I live

The thought of the catacombs left my soul at home
This letter never sent
And it's so far, it's so dark, I'm so lost
Heaven's yours, heaven's yours
Heaven's yours where I live
(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
When I'm moving too fast, where's my new address?

The water is evening now, the catacombs are filling in
If my soul was made of stone, no, not, not so dark, dark

And it's so far, it's so dark, I'm so lost
And it's so far, it's so far, it's so far

Heaven's yours, heaven's yours
Heaven's yours where I live
(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
Heaven's yours, heaven's yours
Heaven's yours where I live
(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)

a great song which suffers from the poor production of the Reckoning Album...obviously about wanting to go home

suffers? not at all. raw, clear, and just ambiguous enough to know that its all about going home after being on the road far too long.
