Song information
Artist: Ted Leo & The Pharmacists Album: Shake The Sheets
Lyrics
Oh, lonely day, oh, led astray, oh, burden on the land Oh always same, oh, nothing changed, oh, urge to bite the hand Withholding on your promise to the air Will only lead to something bad, I swear You can't escape the angels' share
Down again -- it seems a losing fight Yet, down again, I sit, to try to write An open letter to a president Or melodies to help a girl pay rent (We saved and saved, only to find them spent)
When oh, the long road leads me to your door Feed me food and heal my health and offer me your floor There, you'll find me lying there in the morn If I don't wake, you've got to let me go on Let me go on my way Do try Get by Because on and on, the tides are surely come As sure enough, they'll leave again as one As you and i, we will or won't be here As sure enough, the angels take their share, but where? I'm not so sure I think it's fair And I'm not so sure I think they care
