Avalanche in Heaven - Head Wound City

Tie me to the rack!

Feed me to the lash!

Light me up atop a pile of holy Heaven’s trash

Eternity’s too long a wait kneeling at the cross

Flood the gates of paradise to wash you from my thoughts

I could go blind

Sleep 1,000 years

Still I’d see you every night

Like a reflection in the mirror

Can’t clean to disappear

Still I see you every night

Tie me to the rack!

Feed me to the lash!

Light me up atop a pile of holy Heaven’s trash

Eternity’s too long a wait kneeling at the cross

Flood the gates of paradise to wash you from my thoughts

All the stars will hang, the sky will take a bow

The moon will flash a fang in an executioner’s gown

All the tongues of Babel will call you by your name

Along that hidden path hand in hand again

Tie me to the rack!

Feed me to the lash!

Light me up atop a pile of holy Heaven’s trash

Eternity’s too long a wait kneeling at the cross

Flood the gates of paradise to wash you from my thoughts

An avalanche in heaven, a rapture in reverse

I’ll stand beneath the ladder to worship at your curse

The martyrs will return to bask amongst the flame

Along that hidden path hand in hand again

All the stars will hang, the sky will take a bow

The moon will flash a fang in an executioner’s gown

All the tongues of Babel will call you by your name

Along that hidden path hand in hand again
