Overkill - Head of a Pin

God give me strength to recover, God give me strength overcome
God put together something good for me, that can’t be undone
Hand on the good book survival, hand shading eyes from the sun
Hand in hand down that dirty road, we can’t be undone, no its number one

How many times and how many crimes, o pill to break the fever
How many more will walk through the door, turn doubter to believer
When you’re alone, say a little prayer for me

Hey there Mr. pilot can you fly me to your hill
And I will start the riots, I will teach them how to kill
And when we finally get to heaven
Absolved of all our sin, we will know how many angels
On the head of a pin

I prayed like I thought I was dying, prayed when I didn’t believe
Prayed all the time on the dirty road with, no reprieve
Faith, drug of choice for this sinner, hope was the reason out done
Trust in me, we are hand in hand, we can’t be undone

LOW, FAST AND MEAN, WE WERE KILLING THE DREAM
CAME THE ROAR OF THE PIPES AND A BANSHEE SCREAM
AND MAN HELD STOP, DIDN’T KNOW WHAT HE MEAN
SO WE BURNED ON BY WE WERE SINGING MEAN GREEN
EVERYBODY SAID THAT THEY KNEW HIM WELL
HE WAS A MAN OF GOD, BUT YOU REALLY COULN’T TELL
IF THE DEAL WAS REAL OR IF THE ANGEL FELL
BUT WE WERE SINGING MEAN GREEN ALL THE WAY TO HELL
Tear this place to the ground, stone and dust lay all around
Don’t you say exactly where you been, dance with the angels on the head of a pin
