White lips, pale face
Breathing in snowflakes
Burnt lungs, sour taste.

Light's gone, day's end
Struggling to pay rent
Long nights, strange men.

And they say
She's in the class A team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since eighteen
But lately, her face seems
Slowly, sinking, wasting,
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life
Come free to us.

Cause we're just
Under the upper hand
And go mad for a couple of grams
And she don't wanna go
Outside, tonight.

And in a pipe
she flies to the Mother Land,
Or sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly

Angels to fly

Ripped gloves, rain coat,
Try to swim and stay afloat
Dry house, wet clothes.

Loose change, bank notes
Weary-eyed and dry troath
Call girl, no phone.

And they say
She's in the class A team,
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since eighteen
But lately her face seems
Slowly, sinking, wasting,
Crumbling like pastries,
And they scream
The worst things in life
Come free to us.

Cause were just
Under the upper hand,
And go mad for a couple of grams
But she don't wanna go
Outside, tonight

And in a pipe
she flies to the Mother Land,
Or sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly

An angel would die
Covered in white
Closed eyes,
And hoping for a better life.

This time
We'll fade out tonight
Straight down the line.

And they say,
She's in the class A team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since eighteen
But lately her face seems
Slowly, sinking, wasting,

Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life
Come free to us.

And we're all
Under the upper hand
And go mad for a couple of grams
And we don't wanna go
Outside, tonight.

And in a pipe
We fly to the Mother Land,
Or sell love to another man

It's too cold outside
For angels to fly

Angels to fly

To fly, to fly

Angels to fly

To fly, to fly

Or angels to die.
