Blue October (UK) - "Angel" lyrics
I’m wishing the bath water clean
She hides in the back and is unseen
I take off the mask that surrounds me
Look me in the face
What do you see
I feel like a boy the age of 13
But my mind stays the same
My body grows up
Look me in the face
How do you tell an angel
What do you see'
That you don’t believe in God'
Why do I feel
I look around
Like such a stranger
I look around
And all my friends are gone
But oh would you be me'
Because I would be you
Only if you wanted to
Oh you’d be happy
And how would you treat me'
Because I would treat you
Oh you’d be happy
Only if you wanted to
Why does this seem like such a bother'
How do you tell your Father,
When mom says you’d be better off dead
That you want him to notice you'
But I want to see you
She hides in the back and is unseen
I take off the mask that surrounds me
Look me in the face
What do you see
I feel like a boy the age of 13
But my mind stays the same
My body grows up
Look me in the face
How do you tell an angel
What do you see'
That you don’t believe in God'
Why do I feel
I look around
Like such a stranger
I look around
And all my friends are gone
But oh would you be me'
Because I would be you
Only if you wanted to
Oh you’d be happy
And how would you treat me'
Because I would treat you
Oh you’d be happy
Only if you wanted to
Why does this seem like such a bother'
How do you tell your Father,
When mom says you’d be better off dead
That you want him to notice you'
But I want to see you
Oh would you call me'
I still want to see you
Oh it’s not hard too
I’m the first one
Oh, you gave birth to
On my birthday
And oh would you write me
Graduation, was yesterday
Yesterday
Oh…
How do you hold the special victim'
When they push you away
When they’ve been
Raped on the inside
Touched in private places
Torn on the outside
The dirt and ugly from the stain that they try to hide
Embarassed faces
To scared to ask for help
Oh would you be me'
Because I would be you
Oh you’d be happy
Only if you wanted to
And how would you treat me'
Because I would treat you
You’d be happy
Only if you wanted to
I’m wishing the bath water clean
She hides in the back and is unseen
I take off the mask that surrounds me
Look me in the face
What do you see'
I still want to see you
Oh it’s not hard too
I’m the first one
Oh, you gave birth to
On my birthday
And oh would you write me
Graduation, was yesterday
Yesterday
Oh…
How do you hold the special victim'
When they push you away
When they’ve been
Raped on the inside
Touched in private places
Torn on the outside
The dirt and ugly from the stain that they try to hide
Embarassed faces
To scared to ask for help
Oh would you be me'
Because I would be you
Oh you’d be happy
Only if you wanted to
And how would you treat me'
Because I would treat you
You’d be happy
Only if you wanted to
I’m wishing the bath water clean
She hides in the back and is unseen
I take off the mask that surrounds me
Look me in the face
What do you see'
