ghosts and leviathans - angels

We're the saddest people I know
Live our lives in parallel lines
We're just kids
Looking for a little more time
We're the coolest kids in the world
Find wonder when we look to the sky
Talk shit, and then we breathe fire
We walk the streets with rage inside
And everyone steps to the side
It's like -
We've finally come to life
And the world says fuck you but we don't react
Because we know better than to fuck with that
The fool invites us to a midnight dance
But what the fool doesn't know is that he's out of chances
We keep dreaming, the world keeps going round
As we manipulate sound
(We are the angels that you dream about)
We keep screaming, the world keeps slowing down
And we're crying out
(We are the angels that weep aloud)
We're the funniest people I know
Wisecrack at the back of the bus
Watching the regulars turn to dust
We're just fucking outrageous
Angels taking over our bodies just to save us
We're living lowkey, smothering our light
But it's kinda fucking hard when your aura is this bright
And the world says go deeper if you think you can
As long as I've got my angels here to hold my hand
I'm not scared now
I'm prepared now
We keep dreaming, the world keeps going round
As we manipulate sound
(We are the angels that you dream about)
We keep screaming, the world keeps slowing down
And we're crying out
(We are the angels that weep aloud)
