Phantom Regret By Jim

The Weeknd

    Continues after the ad

    You're tuned to Dawn FM
    The middle of nowhere on your dial
    So sit back and unpack
    You may be here a while
    Now that all future plans have been postponed
    And it's time to look back on the things you thought you owned
    Do you remember them well?
    Were you high or just stoned?
    And how many grudges did you take to your grave?
    When you weren't liked or followed, how did you behave?
    Was it often a dissonant chord you were strumming?
    Were you ever in tune with the song life was humming?

    If pain's living on when your body's long gone
    And your phantom regret hasn't let it go yet
    You may not have died in the way that you must
    All specters are haunted by their own lack of trust
    When you're all out of time, there's nothing but space
    No hunting, no gathering, no nations, no race
    And Heaven is closer than those tears on your face
    When the purple rain falls, we're all bathed in its grace

    Continues after the ad

    Heaven's for those who let go of regret
    And you have to wait here when you're not all there yet
    But you could be there by the end of this song
    Where The Weeknd's so good and he plays all week long
    Bang a gong, get it on
    And if your broken heart's heavy when you step on the scale
    You'll be lighter than air when they pull back the veil
    Consider the flowers, they don't try to look right
    They just open their petals and turn to the light
    Are you listening real close? Heaven's not that, it's this
    It's the depth of this moment, we don't reach for bliss
    God knows life is chaos, but He made one thing true
    You gotta unwind your mind, train your soul to align
    And dance till you find that divine boogaloo

    In other words
    You gotta be Heaven to see Heaven
    May peace be with you
