Lyrics:

Dark lips, pale face

Crying for her mistakes

Red eyes, sour taste

Light’s gone, day’s end

Getting hard to be a friend

With long nights, we pretend

And they say her steady hands are shaking

Slowly sinking, wasting

And I am just aching, but lately

Her beauty falls slowly, sinking

Breaking, tumbling like starbeams

And we scream, “The worst things in life come free to us.”

‘Cause we’re making our way through the unplanned

Spending dimes for a loving hand

And she won’t want to go outside tonight

And in a dream she flies from her wasteland

To sell smiles to another hand

It’s too cold outside for angels to fly

 

Ripped dress, stained coat

Tried to swim and stay afloat 

Warm nights, blank notes

White hands, pained prose

Weary-eyed, parched throat

Lonely girl with no home

 

And they say her steady hands are shaking

Slowly sinking, wasting

And I am just aching, but lately

Her beauty falls slowly, sinking

Breaking, tumbling like starbeams

And we scream, “The worst things in life come free for us.”

‘Cause we’re making our way through the unplanned

Spending dimes for a loving hand

And she won’t want to go outside tonight

And in a dream she flies from her wasteland

To sell smiles to another hand

It’s too cold outside for angels to fly

And angels will die, covered in white

 

And they say her steady hands are shaking

Slowly sinking, wasting

And I am just aching, but lately

Her beauty falls slowly, sinking

Breaking, tumbling like starbeams

And we scream, “The worst things in life come free to us.”

And we all make our way through the unplanned

And go mad for a loving hand

We don’t want to go outside tonight

And in a dream we fly from this wasteland

To buy smiles from a loving hand

It’s too cold outside for angels to fly

Angels to cry

To fly, to fly, to fly

For angels to fly, to fly, fly

Angels to die
