1
I don't believe in either heaven and hell as a place to go to
2
that you know when we die we're going to go down
3
and burn for a while or if we're good we're going to go up there
4
and be happy for a while
5
or purgatory where all the poor unbaptized babies are hanging out you know I think anybody who's got
6
that kind of anybody who came up with that idea that there's going to be a place where a little
7
little children are going to be hanging out for the rest of their lives, you know, is either the sickest person on earth or the most stupid person on earth.
8
I think both of those things apply.
9
So I don't believe in any of those things.
10
My belief in heaven and hell is heaven and hell is right here.
11
This is where we are.
12
This is heaven, this is hell.
13
You make your own heaven, you make your own hell.
14
Hell, good and evil, God, the devil, reside in each one of us.
15
I don't have to go to a place to pray.
16
Yeah, pray inside myself.
17
I can pray to whomever I want to inside myself and get the same results.
18
I don't need to be told by a priest.
19
that I'm bad or to be told by a nun
20
that I'm not learning my project properly and get smacked on the hand with a ruler.
21
Who the hell are you to do that to me?
22
Or to be told that Here's God.
23
And God is a guy who's been nailed upon a piece of wood.
24
It's not the way I want to think of life.
25
I don't think of it that way.
26
And with all the religions that they are preaching all the same things, it's real one great big homogenized thing anyway.
27
At the end of the day, if we all just believe in the same thing, You know, that we got a choice between good and evil.
28
Hey, make your choice.
29
That's all it's about to me.
30
So writing those songs perhaps brought out a little bit of my cynical side, but what it brought out of me is what I believe in life.
31
And that is that we are the last in line.
32
And there is heaven and hell if you consider that it's what people do to you that make it heaven and hell, which goes right to the song.
33
The world is full of kings and queens who blind your eyes and steal your dreams.
34
That's heaven and hell.
35
That's what heaven and hell is.
36
The heaven when the people tell you how good they're going to treat you
37
and the hell when you find out it was all a lie, wasn't it?
38
That's what heaven and hell is to me.
