Angels Lyrics by Bobby Conn

The Golden Age

2001

Richard had a party so many years ago
We were only seventeen and the scene
Was a fantasy we'd stolen from an English queen
We were into swimwear, we danced to cheap cassettes
I was pretty dumb, but my gums
Got so numb from the cocaine when they were kissing me
Richard saw his mother, she wasn't really there
He was really much too high to survive
When he tried his suicide off the balcony

And he said:
"Angеls are breaking my bones again
Mothеr you're driving me crazy"
He told me:
"Turn out the lights, don't turn out the lights"

So we dragged him down off the railing
So he wouldn't break his pretty head when he fell down
To the hard cold pavement below
It was snowing outside, snowing inside, no place to hide
From the snow and the razors he used to cut lines
In his arms were making him bleed all over the place
Well it's kind of a drag when a small town fag
Is trying to off himself when I'm just trying to get it on
Just trying to get it on for the very first time

And he said:
"Angels are breaking my bones again
Mother you're driving me crazy"
He told me:
"Turn out the lights, don't turn out the lights"

So we turned out the lights and everything was quiet
No reason to be scared no reason to deny it
Taking off our clothes [?] all our holes
The angels came down, angels came down
And they came through the doors, screaming "you whore"
The angels came down, angels came down
Bleeding as he cried, "you should have let me die"
The angels came down, angels came down
