Heaven Help Us

Hear the sound, the angels come screaming

Down your voice, I hear you've been bleeding

Make your choice, they say you've been pleading

"Someone, save us!"

Heaven, help us now

Come crashing down

We'll hear the sound

As you're falling down

And out of this old hotel, but can't tell if I've been

Breathin' or sleepin' or screamin' or waitin' for the man to call

And maybe all of the above, 'cause mostly, I've been

Sprawled on these cathedral steps while spitting out the blood and screaming

"Someone, save us!"

Heaven, help us now

Come crashing down

We'll hear the sound

As you're falling down

And will you pray for me or make a saint of me?

And will you lay for me or make a saint of me?

'Cause I'll give you all the nails you need

Cover me in gasoline

Wipe away those tears of blood again

And the punchline to the joke is asking

"Someone, save us!"

Heaven, help us now

Come crashing down

We'll hear the sound

As you fall

And would you pray for me? (You don't know a thing about my sins)

(How the misery begins) or make a saint of me? (You don't know)

(So I'm burning, I'm burning)

And will you lay for me? (You don't know a thing about my sins)

(How the misery begins) or make a saint of me? (You don't know)

(So I'm burning, I'm burning) 'cause I'll give you all the nails you need

(I'm burning, I'm burning again) cover me in gasoline again
