Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Show me the way and I'll walk
Show me the way to heaven's gate
Show me the way and I'll walk
Tell me the way to redemption's door
Time ticking on the clock
Tell me the way to redemption's door
Answer me when I knock
I'll follow them to Jerusalem
It can't be that far
I'll follow them to Jerusalem
Just tell me who they are
Show me the way to heaven's gate
Show me the way and I'll walk
Show me the way to heaven's gate
Listen when I talk
Birds have wings and winds to fly
They carry no demise
We have notes and songs that cry
Praying with our hands
All the mistakes a man can make
Been on this road so long
All the mistakes a man can make
Must they all been wrong
Show me the way to heaven's gate
Now that I forgot
Show me the way to heaven's gate
Show me the face of god
The song "Heaven's Gate" by Piers Faccini feat. Dawn Landes is a yearning plea for guidance towards the gateway to heaven. The singer is asking to be shown the way, to be led towards redemption's door, as time is ticking on the clock.

The singer is willing to follow whoever could lead him to Jerusalem, a place symbolizing the end goal of the journey towards spiritual enlightenment.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of the human condition and the struggles and mistakes that we make along the way. The line "All the mistakes a man can make/Must they all been wrong" suggests that there is a possibility for redemption and forgiveness, but the singer needs to know how to reach it.
Overall, the song is a beautifully crafted and powerful expression of the longing for spiritual fulfillment and the struggle to find the way there.

My band teacher does a thing where he lets us listen to new songs every day and this came up. I almost immediately added it to my playlist.
