hear my voice
hear my call
I know I do stand tall
but I know
I can be the most silent one
of them all
dearest father of mine
all the angels
seem to have flown away
what do you say now
there`s no way in hell
you`re going to heaven
hailing her
for giving me life
hailing her
for all she was
hailing her
for all she was
hailing her
for what she made me become
let me be your jesus
let me be your satan
all I`m asking
is if you`ll let me
walk in the same footsteps
of yours into eternity
I had all day
but you gave me the night
as well
you`ve seen it all come apart
I can see you
from wherever you ever stood
and sometimes
the man in the middle
has to make a choice
I gave you a hard time
you gave me an hour
in a second
you knew the score
and you scored
not once but twice
so, I am
hailing her
for giving me life
hailing her
for all she was
hailing her
for all she was
hailing her
for what she made me become
because
she has come to a place
where the roses
refuse to die
she knows
and I know
no gate in heaven
nor hell
will ever close
for her
she has come to a place
where the roses
refuse to die
