Dark Angel

Gretchen Peters · Hello Cruel World [2012]

I got no use for harps and wings

I got no time for foolish things

There is no heaven, there is no hell

There's only you, my dark angel



Your bleeding heart, your pilgrim soul

Your wounded eyes, that take their toll

Your ragged voice like a broken bell

Against the noise, my dark angel



And if there is no hereafter

And there is only here

Life is still a beautiful disaster

Ah but we both know that my dear



So let the curtain rise, let the great world spin

If it's just for show - let the show begin

Everybody got something to sell

Except for you, my dark angel



There is no heaven, there is no hell

There's only you, my dark angel

There's only you, my dark angel
