Your friends all said I was an angel
Well, I don't know, but you can bet
I've been to hell and back and then some
Since then, son
And I ain't seen no halo yet
So what was all this they were seeing
That you just could not see in me?
I wanted neither d**h nor glory
Just something in between
If I ever need an answer
I know it's forever lost behind the truth
You'd know what I mean
If you've ever been
Somewhere in between an angel and you
I've tried to live with some compa**ion
I've had to run to stay alive
But now I've put all that behind me
Behind me
I'm gonna grind my gears and drive
I could have thrown my heart wide open
But now I'm just too worldly wise
Am I some kind of shotgun angel?
Are you the devil in disguise?
