Watching Heaven Fall

verse
Do you remember my friend? The rider dressed in red
On the train, telling truths about his love
Do you recall what he said? That it′s all fire once you're dead
Well, we laughed it off, it didn′t seem enough
If a tank of gasoline won't make your engine sing
Then your working set of wheels don't mean a thing
chorus
God forgive us, we didn′t care at all
Watching Heaven fall
verse
You put seven bars up at a bar in Silver Creek
And I knew right then that you wouldn′t come back down
And now you're waking covered in the sweat of seven dreams
Seven bandits in the bins they carve around
When I told Miss B that you and me would run, run away
She said, "It′s too late, son, that daddy's due today"
chorus
God forgive her, she didn′t care at all
Watching heaven fall
verse
I'm giving all my money to the children in the trees
So no great man can say that I did it all wrong
Won′t you give my body, please, to that eagle in the breeze
She can put me back where I belong
When the seer on the subway said we'd burn in hell
We all laughed it off and said we might as well
chorus
God forgive us we didn't heed the call
Mother Mary, we let it be too long
And there was no answer, we didn′t care at all
Watching heaven fall
