THE ANGELUS Lyrics Gay Woods

I’m learning to live without you,
I’m learning to live with myself.
I’m learning to live with others,
I’m comparing my life to my mother’s.

But I’m still waking in the night
I’m waking up with stagefright,
‘Cos I’m afraid of living
I’m afraid of just surviving.

And there’s sometimes I think I’m psychic,
Or maybe I’m only a witch,
‘Cos if the sun shone on the day
I’d smell winter come the night.

So I go in town, I hang around,
Pretending I am cured,
But my 60’s complaint is the 80’s lament,
Paranoia still rules.

They have me lying in bed thinking the world is dead.
They have me lying in bed thinking the world is dead.

Pray for us sinners.

My mother she lives at my roots,
Her hair was as black as coal,
But now my dye is growing out
I see more into her soul.

My head was my misfortune
I just gave away my name.
But now I see their faces
They let it happen just the same.

I’m lying in bed thinking the world is dead.
They have me lying in bed thinking the world is dead.
I’m lying in bed thinking the world is dead.

Dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, dying
And the word was made flesh.
