Angel’s Doorway Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Angel comes home
His clothes in a cloud
Of the dust and the dirt 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
Don't bring it in (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
Angel comes home
His clothes in a cloud
Of the dust and the dirt 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
Don't bring it in (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
Don't bring it in (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 dust and the dirt and destruction
At Angel's door
You have to leave it on the floor
Don't bring it in (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 dust and the dirt and destruction
