Angel

Ellis Paul

Needle in my hand

Got a forearm rubber band

Got a golden liquid in a tube

I'm gonna do a vessel jam

Got lots of money

I think, I think I might be

He's got trademark shoes, three tattoos

A brass chord necklace and a smoke-stack too He's got...

Take a break from the storm in the eye of the hurricane...



(chorus)



Eyes in the mirror, not too sure if they're my own

Black-white eyes in the mirror on a face of cold stone

Black-white eyes, riddles and lies

They tell me, tell me, tell me you've got nothing to hide but...
