Spend all your time waiting
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
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.
