Lyrics

I watched him plane away
What a great ship he was
Stayed until the lonely late
Was bound to see him come undone
In the dirty, yellow dim
A Klonopin, a gin soaked smile
I'm just sick enough
My love of love keeps me alive
I know you wanna see heaven bad
Let's wait it out here instead
Cause the road through hell is black
Oh Dante, please come back
Oh Dante, please come back
I guess I could have gone his way
And sweat it out the next daylight
And pin it on his woman's name
I got angels on the inside
Oh the fury of you lumberjacks
Who can't take down the tree
Well it would take a bigger man than you
To make firewood of me
I know you wanna see heaven bad
Let's wait it out here instead
Cause the road through hell is black
Oh Dante, please come back
Oh Dante, please come back
And don't I wish that I could be
That power that you crave
Chemical and shivering
You'd lick the last of me away
And you may be the bearded wise
And I'm the siren on your rocks
But I'll take your peasant hands and kiss
The callouses you got
I know you wanna see heaven bad
Let's wait it out here instead
Cause the road through hell is black
Oh Dante, please come back
I know you wanna see heaven bad
Just let me hold you here instead
Cause the road through hell is black
Oh Dante please turn back
Cause the road through hell is black
Oh Dante please come back
Cause the road through hell is black
Oh Dante please come back
