From the recording Aliens Angels & Monsters
Lyrics
There’s a bolt lock
On her bedroom door
You softly knock
She answers
You try not to choke
On the cigarette smoke
In the darkness
You want to let light in
You don’t know how
You close your eyes
And call for angels now
She asks you
To get her some water
For her medicine
You dump her ashtray
Wipe your tears
Head back upstairs
To the sickness
You want to let light in
You don’t know how
You close your eyes
And call for angels now
I hate to tell you this
There’s little you can do
The angels you have called
Are for you
There’s a sickness
You want to ease her pain
Let her smile again
But there’s darkness
You want to let light in
You don’t know how
You close your eyes
You want to let light in
But you don’t know how
So you close your eyes
You want to let light in
You don’t know how
You close your eyes
And call for angels now
You call for angels now
You call for angels now
You call for angels
Now
