St. Peter (Better Than Yours)

Peter stands outside his gates
When I arrive from endless sleep
He says I have some time to wait
When I ask he answers “someday”
He’s got too much on his mind
To give a damn about me
I took for granted all the things that I was fortunate to have
Like my family and my friends
I slept in late until the sun was almost dead and gone but
What was I supposed to do
I had too much on my mind
To give a damn about you
I kept myself from giving in
With thoughts of my father
In Heaven doesn’t want me there
Then why should I bother
He’s got too much on his mind
To give a damn about you
I’ve got too much on my mind
To give a damn about you
We’ve got too much on our mind
To give a damn about you
