Lyrics
v) help me be willing to die today
concern for myself is so much in the way
i'm off again
i'm off again
(c) heaven in hand
it won't last long this time
heaven in hand it won't last long
heaven in hand
gives thanks to redefine
hell in my heart i wake to find
(v) coming to you to get reassurance
that i'm not blocked by my own interference
cause it's black again
white noise coming in
(c) heaven in hand
it won't last long this time
heaven in hand it won't last long
heaven in hand
gives thanks to redefine
hell in my heart i wake to find
(br) if you want to make the big decision
follow it with why it must come
i'm to scared to make the first incision
overcome the fear when it's done
(v) thought i'd divorced the circular notion
of how to belong on the floor of the ocean
cause it's black again
white noise coming in
(c) heaven in hand
heaven in hand
heaven in hand
