Angel

Angel

for that second chance


for a break that would make it okay


there's always one reason


to feel not good enough


and it's hard at the end of the day


I need some distraction


oh beautiful release


memory seeps from my veins


let me be empty


and weightless and maybe


I'll find some peace tonight




in the arms of an angel


fly away from here


from this dark cold hotel room


and the endlessness that you fear


you are pulled from the wreckage


of your silent reverie


you're in the arms of the angel


may you find some comfort there




so tired of the straight line


and everywhere you turn


there's vultures and thieves at your back


and the storm keeps on twisting


you keep on building the lie


that you make up for all that you lack


it don't make no difference


escaping one last time


it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh


this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees




in the arms of an angel


fly away from here


from this dark cold hotel room


and the endlessness that you fear


you are pulled from the wreckage


of your silent reverie


you're in the arms of the angel


may you find some comfort there


you're in the arms of the angel


may you find some comfort here
