What is life? Why?
Where do we go when we die? Heaven? Explain. Another planet? Is Heaven another planet?
Why is there Heaven or Hell? Time? Why? Explain. Do we make worlds? Do we become like God? Why?

If you want my eyes
Take my eyes
They’re always true
If you want my heart
Take my heart
It’s right here for you
