[Verse 1]
Nothing that you say will release you
Nothing that you pray would forgive you
Nothing's what your words mean to me
Something that you did will destroy me
Something that you said will stay with me
Long after you're dead and gone

[Pre-Chorus]
If flesh could crawl, my
Skin would fall from
Off my bones and
Run away from here

[Chorus]
As far from God as heaven is wide
As far from God as angels can fly

[Verse 2]
If holy is as holy does
This house will burn straight down to hell
And take its conscience with it as it falls
Nothing said could change the fact
My trust was blind, you broke the pact
If God's my witness, God must be blind
[Pre-Chorus]
If flesh could crawl, my
Skin would fall from
Off my bones and
Run away from here

[Chorus]
As far from God as heaven is wide
As far from God as angels can fly

[Interlude]
I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish

[Verse 3]
Take it back, I dare you, take it back
No, you can't, you should've thought of that
What's inside a man that goes so wrong?
Choke on guilt, that's far too good for you
Say one word, I'll laugh and bury you
And leave you in the place where you left me

[Pre-Chorus]
If flesh could crawl, my
Skin would fall from
Off my bones and
Run away from here
[Chorus]
As far from God as heaven is wide
As far from God as angels can fly

[Outro]
I wish I could fly
As angels can fly
(I wish)
(I wish)
