Heaven's Gate - Backworld

Waiting here, in the dark

Into your heart to creep

The others have gone away

To the other side of the world

The wilderness in our eyes

Is an offering for the blind

Calling down the fires of the sky

I see you hiding in the dark

I hear you calling me by name

Hear the fever in my voice

As we all go up in flames

Off of the edge

Of the earth, washed by a flood of flame

If emptiness is the sin

Then this shall be the end

Unfortunate and unwise

So dangerous to disguise

Calling down the fires of the sky

I see you hiding in the dark

I hear you calling me by name

Hear the fever in my voice

As we all go up in flames

Wasting under cruel sun

Now that’s the final sign

The sky is getting lower

And we’ll never survive the day

Reaching for heaven’s gates

But heaven just stands and waits

Calling down the fires of the sky

I see you hiding in the dark

I hear you calling me by name

Hear the fever in my voice

As we all go up in flames

There’s absolution in the dark

An offering we can’t explain

It’s the feeling of your hands

As you lay them on me

Calling down the fires of the sky (x5)
