Since you've gone to heaven
I don't like comin' home
But I can't stand the thought of mom
In that big house alone
She can't keep it up
She really oughtta sell
Oh, that house without you in it
Is nothin' but a shell
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
Everybody says that Billy
Is lookin' more and more like you
But he won't talk about you
Until he's had a few
He dropped outta college
He's in and out of jail
Had to pawn your pocketwatch last month
To post his bail
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
And I hate you had to leave us
But glad you didn't live to see this
Broken pieces of the family you made
Mama's lookin' so much older
Baby brother can't stay sober
I bet you're rollin' over in your grave
Since you've gone to heaven
They've shut the saw mill down
Guys you worked for thirty years with
Have all moved out o' town
There're signs on every storefront
Seems like everything's for sale
They say the market's bouncin' back
But it's sure hard to tell
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
And I hate you had to leave us
But glad you didn't live to see this
The broken pieces of the Norman Rockwell days
The banks are takin' over
Half the town is in foreclosure
I bet you're rollin' over in your grave
Since you've gone to heaven
I've struggled with 'goodbye'
And broke a lot of promises I made the day you died
Wish I was more like you
Less like myself
And I wish that I could talk to you
'Cause I could use your help
Since you've gone to heaven
The whole world's gone to hell
Since you've gone to heaven
