Beat Happening - Angel Gone lyrics

rate me

How do you cry?

Angel gone

Cheat and lie, Cheat and lie

Angel gone

When you have no one tomorrow

There'll be no kind hearts to borrow

Your galley slaves stop rowing

You don't know where you're going

But you go there all the time

You were an angel

Turned into a stranger

Heart-shaped wings and halo

You love to spin your fables

To the music we were making

Then the harp strings started breaking

They stop cold in wintertime

It must be trying

Angel gone

To wear a halo all the time

Angel gone

When it gets a little crooked

You find another Satan's looking

Still your heaven ends in ruins

You don't know what you're doing

But you do it all the time

You do it all the time

You do it all the time

Angel gone, angel gone

I see you alone and I worry

The past starts getting blurry

You got no one to talk to

And I miss your shouldn't ought to's

And I miss your tender sighs

Should we try

Angel gone

Crashing heaven one more time

Angel gone

Crab Gabriel's horns start calling

All the angels who have fallen

Playing Russian roulette with Satan

We'll ram those pearly gates in

St. Peter he won't mind

St. Peter he won't mind

Angel gone, angel gone

Angel gone, angel gone

Angel gone, angel gone

Angel gone, angel gone
