Angel

I found you on your knees at the graveside
Those hollow eyes were pleading
Couldn't leave you there that night
I took off my shirt and let you bleed on me
Think you lost sight of me
I put you up there just too high

Ain't as kind as you think you are
A little difficult to place
More calloused, wilder than I thought
I bet it all on red
Can't get a grip on yourself
So you get a grip on her ass
Look at you running from your past

Oh, you're a fucking sinner
Got that wandering eye
Smoking Marlboros out the window
Pretty face with a lost mind
Want me thinking of you
'Cause that ego needs to fly
I love a shitty angel
So, can I call you mine?
Mine, mine

Guess something must've made you this was right?
You linger in the doorway, but you won't ever stay, nah
You're pulling both sides of the rope
Scared of the comedown
Wide open, you can't put the shame down
Think I didn't notice
No one's ever good enough for you
That's rich, baby

You ain't as hot as you think you are
A little difficult to place
That delusion is wilder than I thought

Oh, you're a fucking sinner
Got that wandering eye
Smoking Marlboros out the window
Pretty face with a lost mind
Want me thinking of you
'Cause that ego needs to fly
I love a shitty angel
So, can I call you mine?
Mine, mine

Well, it must be so hard
Being so much smarter than
Smarter than, everyone
Look at you playing god
Stuck those wings on with sellotape
Won't be long now before they break

You're a fucking sinner
Got that wandering eye
Smoking Marlboros out the window
Pretty face with a lost mind
Want me thinking of you
'Cause that ego needs to fly
My love, can I call you mine?

I love a shitty angel (mine)
I love a shitty angel (mine)
You must be mine (mine)
I love a shitty angel (mine)
