Angel

They say that all it takes is some medicine The doctors come to help a hopeless scene When everyone responds but no one has the answer I count my hours left on their machines   Sometimes I don't know if I'm dreaming All my wasted time, trouble sleeping in the night And when I find a day to believe in I'm sent crashing down, cold hospital ground   I try to keep my head up high I look up to the midnight sky I hear my heroes' words echoing I'm holding on a winless fight Wear optimism to disguise The raging demons living underneath There's no angels here in my town left for me Numbers never lie, but don't speak truths either I'm analytical, scan their charts just like a treasure map And when I reach the end, it takes me further than I've ever been But I knew it all along They are there, undercover When I'm down, quiet they hover Contagious to the fears inside my mind Multiply, divide and conquer, Cut me up, nature's monster, Walks me right up to the edge, sick parasite I try to keep my head up high I look up to the midnight sky I hear my mother's words echoing I'm holding on a winless fight Wear optimism to disguise The raging demons living underneath There's no angels here in my town left for me I'm cursing the sky I'm blinding my eyes I'm running in circles but I'm Cornered everywhere I'm hurting and fight I let go and cry It doesn't matter anymore   I try to keep my head up high I slip under the ocean tide The noise it grows so loud it's deafening I thought my hope would stay alive It's been so long can't recognize The way I used to think and used to be When there's no angels here in my town left for me
