She's sliding, she's sliding
down to the depth of the world
She's fighting, she's fighting

the urge to make sand out of pearls

Heaven can wait

and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between
what you need and what you know

And they're trying to drive that escalator into the ground

She's hiding, she's hiding

on a battleship of baggage and bones
There's thunder, there's lightning
and an avalanche of faces you know


Heaven can wait
and hell's too far to go

Somewhere between
what you need and what you know
And they're trying to drive that escalator into the ground


You left your credentials in a greyhound station
with a first aid kit and a flashlight

Going to a desert unknown

Heaven can wait

and hell's too far to go
Somewhere between
what you need and what you know

And they're trying to drive that escalator into the ground
