Europe, I bowed and said I'm in
But when my eyes were opened,
she had vanished once again
I chased her down the highways
like lights across the sky
I was looking for perfection
You gotta get higher than you've been
before to knock on heaven's door
Thinking on my way around,
through the laughter and the lights
I was close to understanding,
The angels leave on horseback,
but the devil's out on mine
I was flying down the years
Till I heard the sound of morning
breaking glass around my ears
To knock on heaven's door
Think I know my way around
through the night of lies
This town is holy ground,
nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is our town tonight
Seem s I'll never get away from the bed
and the nails and the knee- jewelry
Sweet familiar scent of danger is the
constant pull of a stranger
God protect me from what I want
And these places that she haunts
Licking all my weary crown
Through the laughter and the lies
Nothing's gonna drag me down
away from the bitter nails and the need to pray
Speak of illness and the dangers that
constantly pull at the stranger
God protect me from what I want
And these places that she haunts
Through the laughter and the lights
This town is home ground,
nothing's gonna drag me down
Through the laughter and the fights
This town is holding ground,
nothing's gonna drag me down
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
This town is holding ground,
nothing's gonna drag me down
This town is holding ground, tonight
And this time it's no time
Nothing's gonna break me down
Nothing's gonna break me down
