Commonly interpreted as a murder ballad, “Heaven Sent” was released as a single from Esthero’s debut album Breath From Another. The video received a bit of airplay on MTV, but never really propelled Esthero to the level of fame that many critics seem to agree she deserved.
[Verse 1]
I came and saw you left the light on
There was no one home at all
Couldn't wait to get your clothes on
Shouldn't come around to call on you
[Verse 2]
The taste was sweet and you delivered
I didn't know I would feel so high
Well, I guess we didn't have to kill her
But don't feel so bad though
[Chorus 1]
You looked her in the eye
And I watched her cry
And my mouth went dry
Everyone is going to have to die sometime
[Verse 3]
My mouth is clean, my hands are dirty
Heaven isn't on my side
Well, if it was, then she'd have hurt me
Didn't think this through
[Chorus 2]
But, I didn't have the time
To perfect my crime
I drank my wine
Everything is going to be just fine
[Bridge]
I don't know, I don't love, (you're alone, you're alone)
I don't know anyone like me
I'm not heaven sent
I'm not heaven sent
But I'm broken and bent
[Chorus 3]
My mouth went dry
As I watched her cry
Everyone has to, gets to die
[Outro]
But not on my time not on this girl's time
Fucked if it's my time (fucked if it's my time)
Not on my time(this is all fucked up)
