(Sarah McLachlan)



You spend all your time waiting for that second chance

For the break that will make it ok

There's always some reason

To feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction

Oh, 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

Far 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 the street life

And everywhere you turn

There's vulture and thieves at your back

The storm keeps on twisting

Keep on building the lies

That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference

Escape one last time

So much easier to believe

In this sweet madness

All the glorious sadness

Brings me to my knees



In the arms of the angel

Far 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

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here



In the arms of the angel
