She`s sliding she`s sliding
down to the dregs of the world
She`s fighting she`s fighting
the urge to make sand of pearls
Heaven can wait
and hell`s too far to go
somewhere between what you need
and what you know
And they are trying to drive
the 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 are trying to drive
the escalator into the ground
And 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 you know
And they are trying to drive
the escalator into the ground
