Lyrics
Angel
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've been afraid all of my life
Crippled with anxiety, shame and doubt
Sometimes, sometimes I'd like to shout
At the top of my lungs and just let it out
What has that fear ever done for me?
But hold me back?
O what has jealousy and hate ever done for you?
But remind you of what you think you lack
So give me love and give me compassion
Self-forgiveness and give me some passion
I’ll love you even if you don't love me
Oh, oh
I'll love you even if you can't love me
All of this pain that I've kept concealed
But if I didn’t speak, it wouldn’t be real
But sometimes, sometimes I feel I have to shout
At the top of my lungs and just let it out
What has that fear ever done for me?
But hold me back?
So, give me love and give me compassion
Self-forgiveness and give me some passion
I’ll love you even if you don’t love me
Oh, oh
I'll love you even if you can’t love me
You’ve been staring at your mirror
Trying to make the picture clearer
But angel can't you see who's in front of you?
So, give me love and give me compassion
Self-forgiveness and give me some passion
I'll love you even if you don't love me
Oh, oh
I'll love you oh can't you see you're free?
Oh, angel can't you see you’re free?
Oh, angel can't you see you’re free?
