Angel Lyrics
I've said it once and I'll say it again.
I've got something hanging over my head.
I was laying on your shoulder
Perfectly content.
Until you told me all over again.
I aint got no sob story to write.
But just like everyone else I'm living this life.
And you don't need to win me over.
And there aint no other side.
To shuffle me from.
I belong where I decide.
But you say...
We don't mess around.
You've got no freedom to come down.
We don't take angels from the sky.
Oh no, we don't mess around.
You're meant to be among the clouds cause your an angel.
But that's a lie. Uh oh oh oh.
Well I suppose you think I'm so flattered to hear
That I'm the whisper conscience in your ear.
Yeah, and that's exactly the reason that I'll never fit in here
Well nothing's ever that blackand white, my dear.
Cuz you say...
We don't mess around.
You've got no freedom to come down.
We don't take angels from the sky.
Oh no, we don't mess around.
You're meant to be among the clouds cause your an angel.
But that's a lie. Uh oh oh oh.
I'm not your angel darling.
I'm not your angel darling.
I am never gonna be.
I'm not your angel darling.
I'm not your angel darling.
I am never gonna be.
We don't mess around.
You've got no freedom to come down.
We don't take angels from the sky.
Oh no, we don't mess around.
You're meant to be among the clouds cause your an angel.
But that's a lie. Uh oh oh oh.
We don't mess around.
You've got no freedom to come down.
We don't take angels from the sky.
Oh no, we don't mess around.
You're meant to be among the clouds cause your an angel.
But that's a lie. Uh oh oh oh.
I've got something hanging over my head.
I was laying on your shoulder
Perfectly content.
Until you told me all over again.
But just like everyone else I'm living this life.
And you don't need to win me over.
And there aint no other side.
To shuffle me from.
I belong where I decide.

You've got no freedom to come down.
We don't take angels from the sky.

Love this song. This is another of her songs about being held up on a pedestal and that she's not perfect. Being seen as perfect would probably put a lot of pressure on someone to live up to that.
I know the song ur talking about, I love it! its called Halo but its actually by Bethany Joy Galeotti

So I got this off the description on Amazon: "The whole idea that you have to be tortured to be an artist, it drove me nuts," [Kate Voegele] declares. "That frustration is what the song is about, where I say, maybe I didn't have a coke addiction or spend my nights getting hammered and dancing on tables, but I'm not this untouchable perfect girl on a pedestal."
I love this song! I honestly can't choose a favorite off the A Fine Mess album because every song is great. She should be so much bigger than she is right now, but then again they don't really play the great artist on the radio now a day.
