Like The Angel - Rise Against

They turn the lights down low

In shadows hiding from the world

Only coming out when it gets cold

The seas part when they hit the floor

Voices carry on and out the door

Everything you touch turns into gold

Like the angel you are

Your laugh creating a lightness in my chest

Your eyes they penetrate me

(your answer’s always 'maybe')

That’s when I got up and left

A beating heart and a microphone

A ticking clock in an empty home still tells

Of these times so long ago

And even though I’ve come so far

I know I’ve got so far to go

And any day now I’ll explode

Like the angel you are

Your laugh creating a lightness in my chest

Your eyes they penetrate me

(your answer’s always 'maybe')

That’s when I got up and left

And each and every day will lead into tomorrow

And tomorrow brings one less day without you

But don’t wait up just leave the light on

Cause all the roads that I might take

Will all one day lead back to you

And like the angel you are

Your laugh creating a lightness in my chest

Your eyes they penetrate me

(Never cease to amaze me)

That’s when I got up and left

That’s when I got up and left
