lyrics

I've been accused of stealing
Gifts which can't be measured
And I've served time for treason of rhyme
Now allegiance sounds much better

With my pedal floored on south 304
I've sent my woman's bloodlines revving
But until tonight when I stumbled inside
I've never been in need of heaven

St. Cecilia
Won't you cover me
Wrap your arms around me tight
Like your rosary
Is it so wrong that I want to believe
We live on
Carved in stone

Baptised headlong into wine and song
As of yet, I'm not recovered
And good advice may suit you just fine
But give me hot nights in summer
When flying too high in unfriendly skies
Yielded stories not yet forgotten
Until tonight when your smile met mine
And I found me another heaven

So tonight as I burn freedom bridges down
With no regard for its passing water
It's because it never seemed right
To watch an honest man die
With his arms outstretched for the border
And if I march this world
With my flag unfurled
Standing tall with my conviction
Then I will be alright
Because I've got you by my side
And that is one step closer to heaven
