Hell Above Lyrics

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 the pavement.
We'll burn it down till the end.

'Cause 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.
'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.
