It's a long way to heaven
It's a short way to hell
Painkillers won't help
When the weight's not yourself
They're poisoning the air
For personal wealth
It's a long way to heaven
It's a short way to hell
I don't know what I'm breathin' for
'Cause the air around here ain't so good anymore
The weatherman says fair
He looks like a lie
Nothin's free in this country
And there's no place to hide, no more

Industrial wind
It blows from the west
It'll burn out your eyes
And suck out your breath
It's waitin' in the wings
For damage down the line
Save your tears for the soaps
And leave your money behind
I don't know what I'm breathin' for
'Cause the air around here ain't so good anymore
The weatherman says fair
But he looks like a lie
Nothin's free in this country
And there's no place to hide, no more
