• Episode 9 (Opening Theme)

When I was young and scared of the world
My mother would sing me a song
It you that I keep in a sacred place
Cause I know that my life won't be long

It tells of the place where you go
When your time here on earth is through
A beautiful place we call heaven
Is it true?
Please God I pray that it's true

At once this land was heaven on earth
Green hills were all you could see
But now it soot and steel and brick
So it looks more like hell to me

And each day brings more and more suffering
And each night is silence and fear
And I wait for the sound of your voice
But you're not here
Why aren't you here?

And now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Please let me die before I wake
So the Lord my soul can take

Then maybe I finally find you
It's the beauty of paradise
And you sing not of dying but living
Wouldn't that be nice?

Wouldn't that be nice?
