Angel Gets Caught In The Beauty Trap

I step out of the shadows and into the bright day

I cannot breathe for the smoke and the city smells

My head comes alive with the humming of engines

I cannot scream for the dust in my throat

I stare at the lovers as they stand in the doorway

I cannot dream for the dirt on my hands

I came to this place with a lifetime of memories falling apart like the shoes on my feet

Even now

I see you fall even now

I see you fall even now

I see you fall your arms stretching out

I remember the hot sand

I remember the blue sky

We sat side by side and traded our names

I remember the sweet air

I remember the time when

I fell in love only to cry in my sleep

Even now

I see you fall even now

I see you fall even now

I see you fall your arms stretching out

Even now

I sometimes call even now

I sometimes call even now

I sometimes call your name in the night in my dream

I feel you breathing in my dream

I feel you breathe in my dream

I feel you breathing in my dream

I feel you breathe
