Like the Angel (demo) Songtext
von Rise Against

They turn the lights down low
In shadows hiding from the world
Only coming up when it gets cold

The seas part when they hit the floor
The voices carry on and out the door
And everything, turns into gold

Like the angel you are
You laugh, creating a lightness in my chest
Your eyes, they penetrate me
(Your answer′s always 'maybe′)
That's when I got up and left

A beating heart, a microphone
A ticking clock in an empty home
Still tells of the times once untold


And I know I got so far
And yet I've got so far to go
And any day now I′ll explode

Like the angel you are
You laugh, creating a lightness in my chest
Your eyes, they penetrate me
(Your answer′s always 'maybe′)
That's when I got up and left

And each and every day, it leads to tomorrow
Tomorrow brings one less day without you
So don′t wait up, just leave the light on
'Cause all the roads that I may take
Will all one day lead back to you

And like the angel you are
You laugh, creating a lightness in my chest
Your eyes, they penetrate me
(Never ceases to amaze)
That′s when I got up and left
