I been had and I been held
|
With the ghosts at bay
|
I been oaked and I been doped
|
And carried away
|
|
I been charred and I been scarred
|
On my own face
|
But i never thought I'd see you as I did today
|
|
Till the angels hung around
|
Till the angels hung around
|
Till the angels hung around
|
As they carried me away
|
|
I been clubbed and I been snubbed
|
By the dogs of LA
|
And I been burned and I been learned
|
In the same city
|
|
I been whored and I been gored
|
I been less and I been more
|
But I never thought I'd see you
|
As I did today
|
|
Till the angels hung around
|
Till the angels hung around
|
Till the angels hung around
|
As they carried me away
|
|
You were stuck in the badlands
|
Acting like a bad bad man
|
I been photographed and painted up
|
And I been in love only once
|
|
And I feared the best and loved the worst
|
And insisted that I go first
|
And watch your eyes as they poured
|
And I never really loved you more
|
|
And I never thought I'd see you
|
As I did today
|
|
Till the angels hung around
|
Till the angels hung around
|
Till the angels hung around
|
As they carried you away
|
|
And they put you in the ground
|
When the angels hung around
|
And the angels hung around
|
As they carried me away
|
