Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Garbage - As heaven is wide ------------------------------------------ Nothing that you say will release you Nothing that you pray would forgive you Nothingīs what your words mean to me Something that you did will destroy me Something that you said will stay with me Long after youīre dead and gone If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones And run away from here As far from God As heaven is wide As far from God As angels can fly If holy is as holy does This house will burn straight down to hell Take itīs conscience with it As it falls Nothing said could change the fact My trust was blind You broke the pact If Godīs my witness, God must be blind If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones And run away from here As far from God As heaven is wide As far from God As angels can fly I wish, I wish I wish, I wish Take it back I dare you take it back No you canīt? You should have thought of that Whatīs inside a man That goes so wrong Choke on guilt thatīs far too good for you Say one word Iīll laugh and bury you And leave you in the place Where you left me If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones And run away from here As far from God As heaven is wide As far from God As angels can fly I wish I could fly As angels can fly I wish, I wish.
