Heaven's Escape

	They're showing a movie on the side of the bank
	Oh, I'm in love with all creation
	And the warmth of the hood of the car in the dark
	Oh, I feel I'm an angel in waiting
	Where time is alive in the dark of your face,
	In the battles we've won, lost or misplaced,
	In the promise of heaven and the hold of its gates,
	Oh, I can see it now
	But tell me how, my love, will we escape?
	Oh how, my love, will we escape?
	I've been asked now to speak a few words to the crowd
	Oh, I could be sick any moment,
	There's a crack in the porcelain cup of the sky
	I broke it and wish I could own it
	And all that leaks through the where we've driven the nail
	To hang here suspended so human and frail,
	From atop of this jerry-rigged circus in jail
	That's folding the tent on us now
	But tell me how, my love, will we escape?
	Oh how, my love, will we escape?
	I deserve a much nicer hotel room than this
	With parking nearer the riot,
	I can look to no man to make me more than I am
	Though, honey, you might want to try it …
	Oh, farewell to arms and to all we might be,
	Farewell to this endless confused reverie,
	Somewhere there's a heaven for you and for me
	But oh, won't you please tell me now
	Just how, my love, will we escape?
	Oh how, my love, will we escape?
