《War of the Angels》歌词

[00:00:00] Lyrics by：Ehmig/Ford

[00:00:18] She runs through the streets so desperately young

[00:00:23] Her eyes aflame and her mind undone

[00:00:28] She aches for the songs that will never be sung

[00:00:32] And the heroes so quickly forgotten

[00:00:37] She sees a friend in the church yard light

[00:00:42] Laughin' and jokin' and talkin' to the sky

[00:00:47] Shots ring out and he hits the ground

[00:00:52] He never opens his eyes and she cries

[00:01:01] Heaven is closed to the angels below

[00:01:05] Streets of gold are now paved with sorrow

[00:01:10] God only knows what happens to love

[00:01:14] When the innocence is gone

[00:01:19] And the war of the angels has begun

[00:01:33] The ghosts in her head have faces and names

[00:01:37] They're soldiers and children all one in the same

[00:01:42] In the streets and the alleys hear the battle cries sound

[00:01:47] And the angels run for cover as the world comes tumbling down

[00:01:51] All through the night the battle is fought

[00:01:56] They can never win back the lives they've lost

[00:02:01] Down on her knees in the tear stained dawn

[00:02:05] She just closes her eyes whispers goodbye

[00:02:12] Heaven is closed to the angels below

[00:02:16] Streets of gold are now paved with sorrow

[00:02:21] God only knows what happens to love

[00:02:25] When the innocence is gone

[00:02:29] And the war of the angels is never won

[00:02:45] Another day in the neighborhood

[00:02:50] Better dry your eyes and be off to school

[00:02:54] She packs her lunch and her daddy's gun

[00:02:59] Seems much too old to be so young

[00:03:22] The battle begins the day that you're born

[00:03:26] Into this world so heartsick and war torn

[00:03:30] Somebody better come and carry her away

[00:03:35] Maybe this angel will live to fly again someday

[00:03:44] Heaven is closed to the angels below

[00:03:49] Streets of gold are now paved with sorrow

[00:03:53] God only knows what happens to love

[00:03:57] When the innocence is gone

[00:04:01] And the war of the angels rages on

[00:04:09] Rages on oh yeah yeah
