Lyrics
Angel Without Wings

Growing up in extreme poverty
And living in a town filled with empty promises
The young boy is filled with scepticism
He battles between right and wrong
Facing a horrifying decision, which no child should have to make
His whole life could be turned upside down
Does he listen to the wishes of his kind, but stressful mother
To remain living in poverty, and be persecuted by many?
The alternative is to take a road into crime and deception
With his so called friends
Either way he'll suffer the consequences
His mother sad, now she's left alone
No shoulder to cry on, no hand to hold
To stay alive, worked her fingers to the bone
Guilt nor shame, her child must have a home
She tried to teach him right from wrong
A town without vision, they don't belong
Eternal friends, persuasive lies
Tainted images, through sorry eyes
Don't be shy, pull up a stool, stick with us
You'll do okay
Money talks, that's their rule
Once you join, you're here to stay
You can't walk away
Lord knows she tried hard to save him
The angel without wings
Stigmatised, the poor, the few
Opportunities given, but not to you
He searched along the corridors of power
A fruitless journey, his darkest hour
By any rule he doesn't play
Now he's the keeper, no-one's fool
Who said crime doesn't pay
All his fears have disappeared
Lord knows she tried so hard, to save him
Lord knows she tried so hard, to save him
The angel without wings
Time, will it tell, a choice of heaven or hell
Lord knows she tried so hard, to save him
Lord knows she tried so hard, to save him
The years have passed by, the leaves have fallen
Learn to survive in time, you're on your own
