Sarah McLachlan

 

Spend all your time waiting for that second chance

For the break that would make it okay

There's always some reason to feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction, a beautiful release

Memories seep from my veins

Let me be empty, oh and weightless, and maybe

I'll find some peace tonight

 

In the arms of the angel, fly away from here

From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.

 

So tired of this straight line, and everywhere you turn

There's vultures and theives at your back

The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies

That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference, escaping one last time

It's easier to believe

In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness

That brings me to my knees.

 

In the arms of the angel, fly away from here

From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.
