ANGEL'S RUSH

Waking up In the numbing cold In a council flat As the power goes

I hear the click And the fear sets in As I feed my cat and set out to sing

I sing for my supper and some warmth to survive Flown solo through my life way too many times Got to find a way to get back on track Holding no regrets and I won't look back

I'm tired of trying to make them hear me I need the strength to find my voice again I'm tired of pretending you see me Blinding crowds of emptiness

Now so much time Has wasted by Been scribbling down These tortured lines

Got a friend on my shoulder Who lifts me up On a concrete stage During Angel's Rush

I sing for my supper and some warmth to survive Flown solo through my life way too many times Got to find a way to get back on track Holding no regrets and I won't look back

I'm tired of trying to make them hear me I need the strength to find my voice again I'm tired of pretending you see me Blinding crowds of emptiness

I'm tired of trying to make them hear me I need the strength to find my voice again I'm tired of pretending you see me Blinding crowds of emptiness

I see you in the headlights I see you in the headlights A city built on aspiration All summed up in a quotation

Somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you

The circle of a spotlight I say the word against the dark night Lonliness and isolation Are hidden deep in the foundation

Somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you Cause in the shadow there is hope Between the fire and the smoke But life is more than just a fucked up joke

Somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you Somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you

In the shadow of the twilight Stars are dropping from the night sky Between the shame and adulation There is a promise of salvation

Somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you And in the stillness of the night In the never ending fight There is a hope that if we get it right

Then somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you Somewhere on the avenue Life is good and good for you

The broken hearts walked two by two Forgotten dreams sing loves and blues So we're all hoping that it’s true Yeah, we're all praying that it’s true
