lyrics

GAURDIAN ANGEL

A woman on a bridge drops one twin with the other one in her arms.
As the second one hits the water she yells I didn't mean them any harm.
They fish the first one out right away but they don't find the second one for days.
There's no reason that the twin who lives isn't the twin who floats away.

Give me an answer, give me reasons, for a world that's hideous cesspool.
The daily news won't help you out and the nightly news won't help you out
and your only hope is to wait and wait
'til you're gone.

In the shallows of Lake Summit a mother drags her daughter and son away from shore.
There's no miracle, no walking on water, no one that the laws of physics ignore.
The mothers lead eyes blink and the son twists free but the daughter descends in shock.
Fate is a lake, is a river, is a womb, is a horrible watery chopping block.

Give me one reason not to be pissed 'cause the world is a hideous shithole.
The daily news won't help you out and the nightly news won't help you out
and your only hope is to wait and wait
'til you're gone.

My guardian angel wants to smother you with its wings
and send you into the guiding light that only eternity brings.
My guardian angel wants to beat the shit out of you,
it's nothing that you have said or done and it's nothing that you will do.
You'll be gone.

Gone, gone, gone, gone.
