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      I'm at this old hotel but can't tell   If I've been breathing or sleeping   Or screaming or waiting 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   Make them say your name   And will you lay for me   And 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)   And make a saint of me?   (You don't know, 'cause I'm burning, I'm burning)      'Cause I'll give you all the nails you need   (I'm burning)   Cover me in gasoline again   (I'm burning again)
