Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines, but you'll still be my star
Baby 'cause in the dark, you can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because

[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took a note i'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Ella ella eh eh eh... Under my umbrella
Ella ella eh eh eh... Under my umbrella
Ella ella eh eh eh... Under my umbrella
Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh...

[Verse 2]
These fancy things,
Will never come in between
You're part of my entity,
Here for infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has delt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You can run into my arms
It's okay, don't be alarmed
Come into me
(There's no distance in between our love)
So gonna let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because

[Chorus]

[Outro]
It's raining, raining
Ooh baby it's raining (raining)
Baby come into me, Come into me
It's raining, raining
Ooh baby it's raining (raining)
You can always come back to me,
Come back to me
Come back to me

Lyrics

You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over

See it started at the park
Used to chill at the dark
Oh when you took my heart
That's when we fell apart
Coz we both thought
That love lasts forever (lasts forever)

See it's very divine, girl
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord...
My baby is driving me crazy

You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They'll have me you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over

They say we're too young
To get ourselves sprung
Oh we didn't care
We made it very clear
And they also said
That we couldn't last together (last together)

See it's very divine, girl
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You have to get declined
Oh Lord...
My baby is driving me crazy

When the night, has come, ah.
And the land is dark.
And the moon,
is the only light we'll see, yeah.
No I won't, be afraid.
No I won't be afraid.
Just as long, as you stand, stand by me.

Lyrics

I close both locks below the window.
I close both blinds and turn away.
Sometimes solutions aren't so simple.
Sometimes goodbye's the only way.

And the sun will set for you,
The sun will set for you.
And the shadow of the day,
Will embrace the world in gray,
And the sun will set for you.

In cards and flowers on your window,
Your friends all plead for you to stay.

And the sun will set for you,
The sun will set for you.
And the shadow of the day,
Will embrace the world in gray,
And the sun will set for you.

And the shadow of the day,
Will embrace the world in gray,
And the sun will set for you.


Eines der unbekannteren Cover und das Lied mit welchem wir auf die Jungs aufmerksam geworden sind ist das Cover von Wyclef Jean feat. Akon - Sweetest Girl. Ein tolle Eigenschaft das sich Boyce Avenue auf keine bestimmte Musikrichtung festlegen nach denen sie ihre Cover auswählen. Gefällt das Lied, wird es gecovert.

Lyrics

Girl...
Uôôh...

High school she was that girl that make me do the hula hoop around the gym
High school she was
That girl that make me do the hula hoop around the gym
I Never thought that she would come and work for the president
Mr. George Washington
She thought he'd call
She had a good day, bad day, sunny day, rainy day
All he wanna know is is
Closed legs don't get fed, go out there and make my bread
All he wanna know is
She ended up in a road car, bruised up, scarred hard
All he wanna know is
She thought he'd call

[Chorus: x2]
See I'mma tell you like Wu told me
Cash rules everything around me
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all

Pimpin' got harder cos, hoes got smarter
On the strip is something they don't wanna be a part of
Rather be up in the club shakin' for a thug
For triple times the money and spending it like they wanna
They got they mind on they money, money on they mind
They got they finger on the trigger, hand on the nines
See everyday they feel the struggle, but staying on they grind
And ain't nobody takin' from us, and that's the bottom line

But I know there's a drop in the block
You move slow
You getting' pressure from cops
you don't know not to lay low
Because 25 to life is no joke
To all my real gorillas thuggin'
On top of corners every day strugglin'
All the beautiful women getting' money
Washin' them dollar bills like laundry

[Chorus: x2]
See I'mma tell you like Wu told me
Cash rules everything around me
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all
Singin' dollar dollar bill y'all


Auch bekannt und von Boyce Avenue "verschönert" wurde der Chris Brown Song - Forever. Liebevoll von einem Fan kommentiert mit dem Satz "If Boyce Avenue makes a Cover of your Song, your fucked" Hierbei ist zu verstehen das die Anhänger und Fans von Boyce Avenue stets der Meinung sind (zurecht) die Cover wären um Welten besser als die Original Version.

Lyrics

It's you
And me
Moving at the speed of light into eternity
Tonight
Is the night
To join me in the middle of ecstasy
Feel the melody and the rhythm of the music around you
Around you
Imma take you there
Imma take you there
So don't be scared, I'm right here
We can go anywhere, go anywhere
But first
It's your chance, take my hand

It's like I waited my whole life
For this one night
It's gonna be me, you, and the dance floor
Cause we only got one night
Double your pleasure
Double your fun
And dance forever (ever ever)
And forever (ever ever)
And forever (ever ever)
Forever on the dance floor

Feels like we're on another level
Feels like our love's intertwined
We can be two rebels
Breaking the rules
Me and you, you and I
All you gotta do is watch me
Look what I can do with my feet
Baby, feel the beat inside
I'm driving you take the front seat
I just need you to trust me
girl, girl, girl

(It's like I)
It's like I waited my whole life
For this one night
Its gonna be me, you, and the dance floor
Cause we only got one night
Double your pleasure
Double your fun
And dance forever (ever ever)
And forever (ever ever)
And forever (ever ever)
Forever on the dance floor

I waited my whole life (whole life)
For this one night (one night)
Its gonna be me, you, and the dance floor (dance floor)
Cause we only got one night
Double your pleasure
Double your fun
Dance with me Cmon

Imma take you there

Cause we only got one night
Double your pleasure

And dance forever (ever ever)
Forever (ever ever)
And forever (ever ever)

Forever (ever ever)
And Forever (ever ever)

Forever on the dance floor


Leider ist das folgende Lied nie wirklich Erfolgreich in Deutschland gewesen, unsere Meinung total unverdient. Denn schon das Original von The Fray - How to Save a Life war ein großartiger Song. Manchen bekannt aus den Fernsehserien Scrubs und Greys Anatomie. Auch dieses Lied wurde "geboyced".

Lyrics

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you...

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Lyrics

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat, the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads that lead you there were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me

Lyrics

We'll do it all,
Everything,
On our own.

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone.

If I lay here,
If I just lay here,
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel.

Those three words
Are said too much.
They're not enough.

If I lay here,
If I just lay here,
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old.
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads.

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own.

If I lay here,
If I just lay here,
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old.
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.

All that I am,
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see.

I don't know where,
Confused about how as well,
Just know that these things will never change for us at all.

If I lay here,
If I just lay here,
Would you lay with me and just forget the world?

Lyrics

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey, hey
Mmmm...
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey, hey, hey, hey
Yea...

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you, even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone
Conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had... and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the milky way

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself

Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day

Nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah

And did you fall for a shooting star
Fall for a shooting star

Nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah

Are you loney looking for yourself out there

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Oh her eyes, her eyes, make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day

Yeah, I know, I know when I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so sad to think she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay, I say

Chorus:
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are,

Verse 2:
Her laugh, her laugh; She hates but I think it's so sexy.
She's so beautiful, And I tell her every day.

Oh you know, you know, you know I'd never ask you to change.
If perfect's what you're searching for, Then just stay the same.

So, don't even bother asking, If you look okay;
You know I say

Chorus:
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are,

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Hold me like the river Jordan

To theen you are my friend

When wrong will you scold me? 
When lost will you find me?

But they told me 
A Man should be faithful 
And walk when not be able 
And fight till the end, 
but I’m only human

Everyone’s taking control of me 
Seems that the world got a role for me 
I’m so confused will you show to me 
You’ll be there for me 
And care enough to bare me?

Hold me (show me) 
Lay your heard lowly (show me yeah) 
Softly then boldly (yeah) 
Carry me there (I’m only human) 
Need me (hold me yeah)

Love me and feed me (love me yeah) 
Kiss me and free me (yeah) 
I will feel blessed (I’m only human)

carry (carry yeah) 
Care me blodly (carry yeah) 
Lift me up slowly (yeah)

Save me (need me yeah) 
Heal me and bathe me

Softly you’ll say to me 
I will be there (I will be there)

Lift me (hold me yeah)

Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)

Yo
I could use a wish or a genie or a tinkerbell
To find my never ever land to save me from this hell
Can’t go back to the that one room shack
Where the floor met the mattress, or the door with the latches
Before all the actors, the models and stuffs,
Before all the clubs, the bottles, the cups,
We swore we would practice, and ignore all the sadness
hold onto our wish, even when if they think it is madness
Whatcha gonna do when your wish shows up
So many saw their chance & they just froze up
So Airlane airplane, don’t leave that runway
I got my ticket, and I swear it’s a one way.

Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)

Can somebody take me back in time
When it was nothing but survival on the mind
Working odd jobs, just to hustle for a dime
Didn’t work considering living a life of crime
Back when I was working Popeyes Chicken, but my rhymes still kicking
Saving up the cash, so that I can take a trip in
Going to a charter bus, four hours still wasn’t trippin’
back when I pushed that demo & they simply wouldn’t listen
But that all ceased, I reserved my seat
I angle with the turbulence, I’m back in one piece
You see that airplane that’s parked on the runway
Before it takes off, make sure you catch it one day

Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)

I could really use a wish right now
I I
I could really use a wish right now
Like like
Like shooting stars
I I
I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now
A wish right now

Lyrics

Easy come, easy go
That's just how you live, oh
Take, take, take it all
But you never give
Should've known you was trouble
From the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open
Why were they open?

Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love
Is all I ever asked 'cause
What you don't understand

I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything
Oh oh, I would go through all of this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same

Black, black, black and blue
Beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said "hey"
When you get back to where you're from
Mad woman, bad woman
That's just what you are
Yeah, you'll smile in my face
Then rip the brakes out my car

Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes you did
To give me all your love
Is all I ever asked, 'cause
What you don't understand is

I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
Oh oh, I would go through all of this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same

No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
You'd never do the same

But still I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything

But darling I'd still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything
Oh oh, I would go through all of this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same

No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same

Lyrics

I guess now it's time for me to give up
I feel it's time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got you're lipstick mark still on your coffee cup
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

Unaware but underlined I figured out this story
It wasn't good
But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can't you find a little room inside for me

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

And we'll be together, this time is forever
We'll be fighting and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

I guess now it's time
That you came back for good

Langsam stellen wir fest das dieser Post wohl kein Ende finden wird. Dabei war das Ziel nur ein "Best of Boyce Avenue". Aber die großartige Arbeit dieser Jungs soll belohnt werden. Weiter geht es mit dem Cover von 3 Doors Down - Here without You

Boyce Avenue - Here Without You (Cover)

Lyrics

Your love's a gathered storm I chased across the sky
A moment in your arms became the reason why
And you're still the only light that fills the emptiness
The only one I need until my dying breath
And I would give you everything just to
Feel your open arms
And I'm not sure I believe anything I feel

And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here

And I'm trying to believe
In things that I don't know
The turning of the world
The color of your soul
That love could kill the pain
Truth is never vain
It turns strangers into lovers
And enemies to brothers
Just say you understand
I never had this planned

And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
Without you here
There's nothing more without you
Without you here

There's nothing more without you
Without you here

My head lies to my heart
And my heart it still believes
It seems the ones who love us are the ones
That we deceive
But you're changing everything
You're changing everything in me

And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here



Ebenfalls richtig gut umgesetzt wurde das Cover von Blink 182 - I Miss You.

Lyrics

Hello there
The angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim
Of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally
If we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have halloween on christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends

I miss you
(I miss you)

Where are you?
And I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep
I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This 6 string's darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
The webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home
And stop this pain tonight?
Stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me
You're already the voice inside my head
(I miss you)
Don't waste your time on me
You're already the voice inside my head
(I miss you)

Lyrics


If you ever leave me, baby

Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,
We don't have it anymore.

There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor
Oooh so keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm makin'
Will keep you by my side
Will keep you from walkin' out the door

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it will rain
Rain, rain
Rain

I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your daddy can't even look me in the eyes
Oooh if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Sayin' there goes my little girl
Walkin' with that troublesome guy

But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Oooh but little darlin' watch me change their minds
Yeah for you I'll try I'll try I'll try I'll try
To pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make you mine

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it will rain

Don't you say goodbye
Don't you say goodbye
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it will rain, rain, rain




Eine richtige tolle Version machte Boyce Avenue aus dem Chartbreaker vom Usher und David Guetta - Without You.

Lyrics

I can’t win, 
I can’t wait
I will never win this game without you, without you
I am lost, 
I am vain,
I will never be the same without you, without you


I won’t run, I won’t fly
I will never make it past without you, without you
I can’t rest, I can’t fight
All I need is you and I, without you.

Without…

You!x 8

I can’t erase, so I’ll take blame
But I can’t accept that we were strange without you, without you
I can’t quit now, this can’t be right.

I can’t take one more sleep this night without you, without you
I won’t sob, I won’t cry
If you’re not here, I’m living life without you, without you

I can’t look, I’m so blind
Lost my heart, I lost my mind without you.

Without…

You! x 8



Nun kommen wir bald zum Ende unsere Liste - als vorletzten Song legen wir euch Somebody That I Used to Know von Gotye ans Herz.

Lyrics

Now and then I think of when we were together 
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die 
Told myself that you were right for me 
But felt so lonely in your company 
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness 
Like resignation to the end 
Always the end 
So when we found that we could not make sense 
Well you said that we would still be friends 
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off 
Make out like it never happened 
And that we were nothing 
And I don't even need your love 
But you treat me like a stranger 
And that feels so rough 
You didn't have to stoop so low 
Have your friends collect your records 
And then change your number 
I guess that I don't need that though 
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over 
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done 
And I don't wanna live that way 
Reading into every word you say 
You said that you could let it go 
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...

But you didn't have to cut me off 
Make out like it never happened 
And that we were nothing 
And I don't even need your love 
But you treat me like a stranger 
And that feels so rough 
You didn't have to stoop so low 
Have your friends collect your records 
And then change your number 
I guess that I don't need that though 
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

I used to know 
That I used to know

Somebody...


Nun kommen wir zum Ende. Die Liste ist um einiges länger geworden als geplant aber um euch diese einzigartige Band vorzustellen nehmen wir gerne etwas mehr Zeit in Kauf. Einer ihrer letzten Cover ist Ed Sheeran - The A Team.

Lyrics

White lips, pale face
Breathing in snowflakes
Burnt lungs, sour taste
Light's gone, day's end
Struggling to pay rent
Long nights, strange men

And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
Cos we're just under the upperhand
And go mad for a couple of grams
And she don't want to go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
Or sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly
Angels to fly

Ripped gloves, raincoat
Tried to swim and stay afloat
Dry house, wet clothes
Loose change, bank notes
Weary-eyed, dry throat
Call girl, no phone

And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
Cos we're just under the upperhand
And go mad for a couple of grams
But she don't want to go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
Or sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly
Angels to fly
An angel will die
Covered in white
Closed eye
And hoping for a better life
This time, we'll fade out tonight
Straight down the line

And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
They scream
The worst things in life come free to us
And we're all under the upperhand
Go mad for a couple of grams
And we don't want to go outside tonight
And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland
Or sell love to another man
It's too cold
For angels to fly
Angels to fly
To fly, fly
Angels to fly, to fly, to fly
Angels to die
