I cannot spend another night in this home.
|
I close my eyes and take a breath real slow.
|
The consequence is if I leave I'm alone, but what's the difference when you beg for love?
|
As I run through glass in the street, kerosene hearts carry the name that my father gave me and take the face of the wolf.
|
|
'Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat.
|
With Heaven above you, there's Hell over me.
|
|
I met a girl who never looked so alone.
|
Like sugar water in your mouth, luke warm.
|
She tied a cherry stem for me with her tongue.
|
We fell in love, and now we're both alone.
|
'Cause I don't need any more friends and another kiss like a fire on pavement.
|
We'll burn it down till the end.
|
|
This is a wasteland, my only retreat.
|
With Heaven above you, there's Hell over me.
|
|
The water is rusted, the air is unclean, and there for a second I feel free.
|
|
'Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat.
|
I've waited all this night to honor you and say,
|
"I know it's hard, but who are you to fall apart on me?"
|
|
'Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat.
|
With Heaven above you, there's Hell over me.
|
|
You said what about us, well what about me?
|
Hang from the gallows, asleep in the rain.
|
|
'Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat.
|
Paralyze me, don't let me jump, don't let me fall.
|
