(Intro)
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 lies

it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
Ab
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

fly away from here

you're in the arms of the angel

you're in the arms of the angel

may you fiii....ind some comfort here
