An An Angel
[Intro]
Let's play a song
["Hallucination" Verse 1]
It's what you see in men
Does my rugged sheet cut scars like daggers
Faces on the wall
We can't touch you but you move our hobby
Reach into the hall
Step around the feast and find the lobby
Open up the door
See an angel and you'll lose your body
[Refrain]
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
[Verse 1]
Picking out a name, stretching out on your bed
Isabelle, Isabelle, can't you hear me I can't tell
Is the devil in the room, is he hiding in thе first drawer
Hold me dear, hold mе dear, can't you feel me touch your ear
["Hallucination" Verse 2]
Meat was on the bone
But the children huddled and devoured
Keep them in the home
But their minds go where their bikes can't take them
Flinching finds me first
So I'll hide 'til she is in the basement
When I light the match
Touching angels' shadows on the ceiling
[Refrain]
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
[Verse 2]
Racing 'round the room, your forehead is like fire
Isabelle, Isabelle, no one's talking you're not well
Looking like a ghost, doctors shaking their heads
Say my name, say my name can't you see that I'm to blame
I'm to blame
[Bridge]
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
["Hallucination" Verse 3]
Grab the preachers throat
Can't you see the light within the shutters
Who set up the ball
Can't you see your dancing frees my chances
Put me on my feet
There's an angel with a hand that's open
Write my name in ink
Send a letter to the ground and beg him
[Refrain]
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
Pretty angel
[Verse 3]
Folding all your clothes, changing all your bed sheets
Isabelle, Isabelle, you're not with me where I dwell
Drinking from your glass, smash it on the pyre
Isabelle, Isabelle, can't you hear me I can't tell
I can't tell
[Outro]
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
The birds are calling for you, please don't follow
