Angel, Angel, Down We Go Together Lyrics

Angel, Angel
Don't take your life tonight
I know they take
And that they take in turn
And they give you nothing real
For yourself in return

But when they've used you
And they've broken you
And they've wasted all your money
And cast your shell aside

And whgn they've bought you
And they've sold you
And they've billed you for the pleasure
And they've made your parents cry
I will be here
Oh. believe me
I will be here
...believe me
Angel, don't take your life
Some people have got no pride
They do not understand
The urgency of life
But I love you more than life
I love you more than life
I love you more than life
I love you more than life

From the Moz himself:

"It was written with Johnny Marr in mind and it is the only song that I have written with him in mind, post Smiths. I saw him in the music industry being used and being pushed around and being manipulated and I felt I was in a situation and I thought, 'Look at me, look at you - it's the same, it's a mess and this is as far as we will go' which wasn't quite true in the end but at that moment it felt pretty despairing for both, I felt despairing for both of us but I was wrong."

When I first heard this song it came on the radio while I was outside my house smoking and contemplating why I'm still alive. Sort of gave me a second look. Now everytime I hear the song it makes me want to cry, lol. Ahh.. Morrissey is the shit, plain and simple. Good singer.
