There is road to perdition
And it's paved with souls
Marked with age-old traditions
And lined with ancient scrolls

You know the quest for redemption
Is an uphill climb
It's a bone of contention
Take one step at a time

Just a spark in the night
A star in the distance
Between what's black and white
Throughout all existence

It's a long road to Heaven
From the Southside of Hell
It's a long road to Heaven
Just trying to break that spell

Come on, all you people
Now's the time to fly
On your wings as the eagles
Right through the needle's eye

Just a spark in the night
A star in the distance
It's a search for the light
Throughout all existence

It's a long road to Heaven
From the Southside of Hell
It's a long road to Heaven
Got to break that spell

It's a long road to Heaven
From the Southside of Hell
It's a long road to Heaven
Just trying to break that spell
It's a long road to Heaven
From the Southside of Hell
A long road to Heaven
Just trying to break that spell
