Angel’s Doorway (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Angel comes home
His clothes in a cloud
Of the dirt and the dust and destruction

[Verse 2]
She waits inside
She knows he's arrived
She feels this with no introduction

[Chorus]
At Angel's door
You have to leave it on the floor
You don't bring it in
He can't show
What she doesn't want to know
Those things he's seen

[Verse 3]
She knows the smell
Of that life he can't tell
Of the fires and the flesh and confusion

[Verse 4]
Inside his brain
It's never the same
Though he tries to maintain the illusion
[Chorus]
At Angel's door
You have to leave it on the floor
You don't bring it in
He can't show
What she doesn't want to know
Those things he's seen

[Verse 1]
Angel comes home
His clothes in a cloud
Of the dirt and the dust and destruction

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
