Do Angels Die Lyrics - Singles - Manic Eden

(music: A. Vandenberg, lyrics: R. Young) 

There's a rose that grows up through the pavement 

She's reachin' for the sky, but she knows 

She's lost in a world that has no pity 

It's all to keep the rats from your door 

But in her dreams, it's hard to tell the fringe from the seams 

And then she cries, do angels die 

Chorus: 

Everything she wants, everything she needs 

It's hard to reach the sky, when you're on your knees 

Everything she wants, everything she needs 

Reachin' for it all, but she's in too deep 

Now all her friends, the hookers and the prancers 

They're tryin' to find the sense in it all 

But she knows, that nobody has the answers 

And no one gives a damn when you fall 

She understands, you never get the blood off your hands 

And then she cries, do angels die 

(chorus) 

(Solo) 

And then she cries, do angels die 

(chorus) 

Reachin' for it all, but she's in too deep 

Do angels die, do angels cry, cry cry cry, do they cry 

Do you hear them cry as they're falling down, do they make a sound... 

(Everything she wants, everything she needs) (repeats out)
