Angels of the River (2008)

[Verse 1]
I took my love
To the riverside
This weight of love
To the riverside
Couldn't get across
But you can't back down
No place to cross
But you can't back down

[Verse 2]
I was up to the knee
I was up to the neck
It was cold as ice
But I couldn't go back
Fists of fear
Squeeze your heart
The world goes red
And falls apart

[Chorus]
And then the angels of the river
Angels of the river
Angels take you down
And then the angels of the river
Angels of the river
Angels take you down

[Verse 3]
My hands are bloody
My feet arе sore
I kicked the squeezеbox
Right across the floor
A broken tune
A broken glass
I won't live long
If I live like this

[Verse 4]
And you can't go back
You can't go round
Rage like this
Pulls governments down
I see her face in the stars
White like bone
Stand at the edge
And howl at the moon

[Chorus]
And then the angels of the river
Angels of the river
Angels take you down
And then the angels of the river
Angels of the river
Angels take you down
And then the angels of the river
Angels of the river
Angels take you down
And then the angels of the river
Angels of the river
Angels take you down

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Angels
Angels
Angels take you down (Angels take you down)
Angels
Angels
Angels take you down (Angels take you down)
I took my love to the riverside (Angels)
This weight of love to the riverside (Angels)
Couldn't get across (Angels take you down)
But you can't back down (Angels take you down)
I took my love to the riverside (Angels)
This weight of love to the riverside (Angels)
Couldn't get across (Angels take you down)
But you can't back down (Angels take you down)
Take you down, take you down
Take you down
