Claire in Heaven

I was no more than three days old

too young to speak too young to count my toes

I think of fields where I might run

this moral twilight I've been plucked fromUp here we have no goals

You tear your hearts, you claw your souls

I wonder at this life that passed me be

But still I smileAlthough I'm not with you down there

I sit alone up here and stare

It's me my name is Claire

Claire in heavenI wait for my next life patiently

I'm in no rush because of what I see

It's hard for me to understand

I gaze from poisoned sea to poisoned landUp here I see a new tomorrow

Your world's not round your world is narrow

For me I just had a while

But still I smileAlthough I'm not with you down there

I sit around up here and stare

It's me my name is Claire

Claire in heaven
