Angel

Hush little angel won't you try The devil hears you when you cry So you can't and you won't Give up the ghost now Leave it alone You know you don't need those lessons Someone else learned It's your life It's your right to burn So you count and discount All the cracks in the pavement As you move about You say that you'll take the push For the sake of the pull When you're deaf dumb and blind Your eyes don't feel the wool And every time it's Hush little angel won't you try The devil hears you when you cry Hush little angel close your eyes Think pleasant dreams and truer lies It's not like those tales Of glass and devotion They like to sell Oh you just want to be wanted It's making you sick But it's all right Oh yeah it's only a prick And that's how you know That it's bad It's the problem with pain It's just something to have Oh babe you're running the clock Cuz you can't make it stop So just sit still And hope the hammer won't drop And every time it's Hush little angel won't you try The devil hears you when you cry Hush little angel close your eyes Think pleasant dreams and bluer skies Angel don't you cry
