Tarnished Angel Lyrics
Tarnished Angel - Silkworm
Written by：Andy Cohen/Tim Midgett/Michael Dahlquist
I thank god for relentless thirst
Corn liquor can't speak
Unless you drink it first
I toasted him before the set
Shouldn't fly a plane
Drunk on anisette
He counseled through the bourbon haze
Never use a cruelty when a joke will do in
It's place
I always drink before the race
It's a savage world not afraid to show a savage
Face
Not one of you
A tarnished angel
Not one of you
A tarnished angel
In a world of swarming flies
Not an angel or an athlete could live so high
To clip the pylon's edge
It's a rookie mistake
It'll be on the rookie's head
The crowd's a rapacious beast
You can feel it's hunger before every feast
Thanks for advice my sodden friend
I'll look deep inside to see if I belong with
The men
Not one of you
A tarnished
Angel
Not one of you
A tarnished
Angel
Not one of you
A tarnished
Angel
Not one of you
A tarnished
On the night I said goodbye
It was for effect
I dried
My eyes
On the night I said goodbye
It was for effect
I dried my eyes
Not one of you
A tarnished angel
Not one of you
A tarnished angel
Not one of you
A tarnished angel
Not one of you
A tarnished
