Angel City Lyrics

Angels in the heaven, demons on the ground

My head is spinning somewhere in between

Homes that look like mansions not so far away

From the cardboard ones that make our streets unclean

Lord, I don't know why, I just wound up here

I can outrun the pain but I can't explain

Why I can't outrun the fear

Guess, the angel I had on my shoulder

Stayed back in my hometown

And here in angel city

There just ain't enough angels to go around

Demons cast their blanket of darkness

On the ground like nightfall

We confuse with the magic in the air

Oh, see that girl with the day-glow, halo

She ain't been here long at all

Says someday she's going back

If she can just remember where

The guy sleeping on the street

Yeah, I wonder, does he pray?

I wonder about me, why I don't get up and leave

When I ain't got no reason to stay

Guess, the angel I had on my shoulder

Stayed back in my hometown

And here in angel city

There just ain't enough angels to go around

Yeah, they say this town is like quicksand

I say, "It's time, that I take my life

Into my own hands, yeah, yeah"

Guess, the angel I had on my shoulder

Stayed back in my hometown

Here in angel city there just ain't

Ain't enough angels to go 'round

There just ain't enough angels to go around
