Lyrics

They say that I’ve become debased
They say that you bear the gift of grace
They say I must look beyond your face
And they call you an angel	
They say it’s true you have your flaws
They say at least you have no claws
They say I must obey their laws
And they call you an angel

All of them are just like you, running in this race
Must each and every one of you have my embrace?

You may be pure and as white as snow
Yet I’m soiled by your touch wherever I go
You may be thrice blessed in all that you do
But the angels below are much stronger than you

True, you have come from a world of light
True, you are all that the world calls right
True, you will not let me out of your sight
And they call you an angel
But so typical is your need for the sun
So typical your hesitation
So typical when from me you run
And they call you an angel

Don’t stare at me if you cannot speak
Don’t slur your words when you try to shriek
Don’t glare at me when it’s you who’s weak
Though they call you an angel
I will not listen to foolish odes
I will not reap of the seeds you’ve sowed
I will not give you my secret code
Though they call you an angel

All of them are just like you, trying hard to prove
But when the demon speaks to me at least he speaks the truth
