Headstart

In all the lessons that I’ve learned over the years
And all the words I’ve read or written down or memorized
There is a lesson, a warning that my mother used to say
That helps to keep my heart in line

May you be heaven half an hour
Before the devil knows you’re dead
May you be in heaven half an hour
Before the devil knows you’re dead

For every time I look inside
And every time I’ve tried to drown
For every time I’ve crossed the line
And every time I lie

May you be heaven half an hour
Before the devil knows you’re dead
May you be in heaven half an hour
Before the devil knows you’re dead
