Dan Korneff - Hell Above lyrics

[Verse 1] 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? [Pre-Chorus 1] Cause I run through gla** in the street Kerosene hearts carry the name that my father gave me And take the face of the wolf [Chorus] Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat With heaven above you, there's hell over me [Verse 2] I met a girl who never looked so alone Like sugar water in your mouth lukewarm She tied a cherry stem for me with her tongue We fell in love and now we're both alone [Pre-Chorus 2] Cause I don't need any more friends And another kiss like a fire on pavement We'll burn it down to the end Oh, oh [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] 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, on me?" [Chorus] [Outro] 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
