Spend all your time waiting

for that second chance

for a break that would 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

memories seep from my veins

let me be empty

oh, how weightless,

then maybe ill find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel

far away from here

from this dark cool 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 here

So tired of the straight life

and everywhere you turn

there's vultures and thieves at your back

and the storm keeps on twisting

keep on building the lies

that you make up for all that you lack

it don't make no difference

escape them one last time

it's easier to believe

in this sweet madness

oh, this glorious sadness,

that brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel

far away from here

from this dark cool 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

where you find some comfort here

you're in the arms of the angel

may you find some comfort here
