Lyrics for Song: As Heaven Is Wide
Lyrics for Album: Garbage [1995]
Nothing that you say will release you
Nothing that you pray will 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
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 would burn straight down to hell
Take it's 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
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 can't, you should have thought of that
What's inside a man that's goes so wrong?
Choke on guilt that's far too good for you
Say one word, I'll laugh and bury you
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...

As Heaven Is Wide
Garbage's 'As Heaven Is Wide' stands as a defining track from their 1995 debut album, capturing the band's signature blend of alternative rock and electronic textures. Produced by the group alongside Daniel Lanois, the recording features the distinctive vocals of Shirley Manson, whose emotive delivery anchors the song's atmospheric sound. The track exemplifies the early 1990s indie-pop revival, utilizing synthesizers and driving rhythms to create a haunting yet energetic atmosphere. It remains a staple of their discography, illustrating how the band successfully merged pop sensibilities with a darker, more experimental edge that would characterize their subsequent work. |
