Angelica Lyrics
In light, just bleed, Angelica
Don't say the lights would not change
'Cause I've seen the gray
Our lives, untouchable
When you see your epic is all in flames
Such coy and winsome lies
Aloft she cries, so high
Thick lovers carry on a passive song
The angel lilts in vain
"We are the ill-advised"
She said through a disguise
Fancy and short
Fall asleep with
All the things you said to me
Running out of time
I'm not crawling
So hide behind what's weak and point the freaks
A place that lights your name
So here's some alcohol to shake the fall
A drink that frames the need
And if you run for fame
And hold such disdain
Ever long
So walk along the lines
And what you know is everything you had in store
What you thought that you'd adore?
You can't hold all you left behind
Fall asleep with
All the things you said to me
Running out of time
In light just bleed, Angelica
Don't say the lights could not change
'Cause I've seen the gray
Our lives, untouchable
When you see your epic is all in vain
The spot light burns inside of me
'Cause bravery's holding my two hands
So high in the air
With each breath Angelica sighs
