Heaven
Fiction Factory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
The sound is in my ears
I can't believe the things you say
They echo what I fear
Twisting the bones until they snap
I scream but no one knows
You say I'm familiar, cold to touch
And then you turn and go
Feels like Heaven
Feels like Heaven
See how we planned for saddened eyes
And tears to pave the way
I fought the fever as I knew
My hair returned to gray
Study your face and fade the frame
Too close for comfort now
We can recall the harmony
That lingered but turned sour
Feels like Heaven
Feels like Heaven
You wanted all I had to give
See me, I feel, see me, I live, oh whoa
Feels like Heaven (Heaven is closer, Heaven is closer)
Feels like Heaven (Heaven is closer, Heaven is closer)
Feels like Heaven (Heaven is closer, Heaven is closer)
Feels like Heaven (Heaven is closer, Heaven is closer)
Feels like Heaven (Heaven is closer, Heaven is closer)
The song "Feels Like Heaven" by Fiction Factory features lyrics that express the feeling of being close to heaven, while also acknowledging fear and apprehension. The opening lines suggest that the feeling of heaven is more accessible now than before, and that the sound of it is present and tangible. However, the following line indicates that the message of heaven is also tied to fear, uncertainty, and doubt. The concept of snapping bones may be a metaphor for the intensity of the emotions being experienced.
The next verse seems to be a reflection on the past, and the sadness and tears that were anticipated, but may not have come to fruition. The singer describes fighting off a fever and returning to gray hair, possibly indicating a sense of aging or feeling worn down. The lyrics also suggest a sense of familiarity with a person, but that this familiarity is uncomfortable and unnerving. The final chorus repeats the feeling of heaven being closer, which may be interpreted as a spiritual or emotional state.
Overall, the lyrics of "Feels Like Heaven" convey a sense of longing and confusion, with the idea of heaven representing a type of escape or release from these emotions. The use of metaphors and vivid imagery adds depth to the lyrics, and the repetition of the chorus gives the song a memorable and emotional quality.

When the record was released, I was 20, bought it right away and did not stop listening to it. Now I am sixty, and I am still in love with this beautiful song. And it takes me back to the 80ies, a wonderful time full of sensational music.
