Lyrics

[00:12.39] White lips, pale face
[00:15.23] Breathing in snowflakes
[00:18.22] Burnt lungs, sour taste
[00:24.07] Light's gone, day's end
[00:27.22] Struggling to pay rent
[00:30.17] Long nights, strange men
[00:35.04] And they say
[00:36.63] She's in the Class A Team
[00:40.06] Stuck in her daydream
[00:42.98] Been this way since 18
[00:45.54] But lately her face seems
[00:48.92] Slowly sinking, wasting
[00:51.89] Crumbling like pastries
[00:54.69] And they scream
[00:56.12] The worst things in life come free to us
[01:00.41] 'Cos we're just under the upperhand
[01:04.18] And go mad for a couple of grams
[01:07.19] And she don't want to go outside tonight
[01:12.43] And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
[01:16.06] Or sells love to another man
[01:19.06] It's too cold outside
[01:23.05] For angels to fly
[01:29.08] Angels to fly
[01:37.51] Ripped gloves, raincoat
[01:40.46] Tried to swim and stay afloat
[01:43.36] Dry house, wet clothes
[01:49.41] Loose change, bank notes
[01:52.33] Weary-eyed, dry throat
[01:55.14] Call girl, no phone
[02:00.12] And they say
[02:01.54] She's in the Class A Team
[02:04.89] Stuck in her daydream
[02:07.77] Been this way since 18
[02:10.47] But lately her face seems
[02:13.63] Slowly sinking, wasting
[02:16.63] Crumbling like pastries
[02:19.32] And they scream
[02:20.93] The worst things in life come free to us
[02:23.66] 'Cos we're just under the upperhand
[02:27.30] And go mad for a couple of grams
[02:30.30] But she don't want to go outside tonight
[02:35.50] And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
[02:39.12] Or sells love to another man
[02:42.22] It's too cold outside
[02:46.03] For angels to fly
[02:49.05] An angel will die
[02:52.19] Covered in white
[02:55.26] Closed eye
[02:56.59] And hoping for a better life
[02:59.49] This time, we'll fade out tonight
[03:04.10] Straight down the line
[03:17.04] And they say
[03:18.59] She's in the Class A Team
[03:22.05] Stuck in her daydream
[03:25.05] Been this way since 18
[03:27.60] But lately her face seems
[03:30.99] Slowly sinking, wasting
[03:33.94] Crumbling like pastries
[03:36.63] And they scream
[03:38.02] The worst things in life come free to us
[03:41.01] And we're all under the upperhand
[03:44.86] Go mad for a couple of grams
[03:47.72] And we don't want to go outside tonight
[03:53.00] And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland
[03:56.61] Or sell love to another man
[03:59.69] It's too cold outside
[04:03.66] For angels to fly
[04:09.88] Angels to fly
[04:16.27] To fly, fly
[04:21.81] Angels to fly, to fly, to fly
[04:27.66] Angels to die
