The hills have eyes in the desert nations
   and  all of your road maps are telling you lies
  The hills have eyes The radio stations
  have faded back into the wind and the sky
  The sun may rise The earth rejoices
   but even your wildest dreams can’t teach you to fly

  When you’re this close to heaven
  you’re too far from home

  The hills have eyes but no compassion
  and when you’re alone you know the reason why
  It’s no disguise  It’s no new fashion
  It’s written on your face and all over the sky
  The hills have eyes but that’s no consolation
  You’ll go thirsty for the tears they don’t cry

  When you’re this close to heaven
  you know you’re just as close to hell

  The hills have eyes in every direction
  And when they look at you from behind
  they hear the cries  feel the infection
  The voice that talks to you is out of your mind
  The hills have eyes but that’s your own decision
  And what you’re searching for
   you’d better hope you don’t find

  When you’re this close to heaven
  you know you’re just as close to hell
