Angel

You spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that will make it okay

There's always some 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.
Well, weightlessness and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
far 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
in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
and everwhere you turn
are vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting

you keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escape one last time

it's easier to believe
in this sweet madness
all this glorious sadness
it brings me to my knees

in the arms of the 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
in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here.
