Heaven Release Us

Open, open your horseshoe mouth,
let's pull out the cankerous heart.
Faith fries the roots of your black-blossom hair.
Faith is a lapidous crown.

Cardinal laughing in the battle,
he's a funny funny one
Holy men laugh all the time,
why, why, why?

Crash the car into an interstate ditch,
there ain't no reason for it.
The wicked world gave each of us
poisonous needles,
and we've been an angry trio.

What's a memento to an old soul
who's been put on the line?
I could lose your shirt and shoes
and still love you fine.

Dear God, Dear God,
Dear God, Dear God,
what are the words
to dispel my fear?
Let's sail this balloon
up to the moon.
Let the burlap and sand
fall back to the land.
I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces
Oh Heaven Release us.

Now, the bloodlined houses,
they riddle my dreams.
I think that I know what they mean.
Save your love in a mason-like jar,
I'll open it when you're a star.
I'll be covered in kisses,
covered in kisses, oh heaven release us.
