"Angel In The House" lyrics

If Van Nuys burns, the world burns
All your friends aging out of the scene
Visions of grandeur, you live on a trap door
She could pull the rug whenever she pleases
She is good to you, but brutal to herself, she is
Like nobody else you have fucked with

I am always carrying
The angel on my shoulder
No matter how I try to do away with her
I am always wary of
A subjugation kind of love
No matter how I like to be guided

(I can't) do away with her
(I can't) do away with her

Lifetime rent and house wine
Suitcase lying at the foot of the bed
Thought that I hacked it, wrote then redacted
Hearing the angel in the mouth of a friend
She said, he keeps her safe
And it feels so good to know your place

I am always carrying
The angel on my shoulder
No matter how I try to do away with her
I am always wary of
A subjugation kind of love
No matter how I try to run
The angel comes around again
