There's a rose that grows up through the
pavement
She's reachin' for the sky, but she knows
She's lost in a world that has no
pity
It's all to keep the rats from your door
But in her dreams, it's hard to tell
the fringe from the seams
And then she cries, do angels die
Chorus:
Everything
she wants, everything she needs
It's hard to reach the sky, when you're on your
knees
Everything she wants, everything she needs
Reachin' for it all, but she's in too
deep
Now all her friends, the hookers and the prancers
They're tryin' to find the
sense in it all
But she knows, that nobody has the answers
And no one gives a damn when
you fall
She understands, you never get the blood off your hands
And then she cries,
do angels die
(chorus)
(Solo)
And then she cries, do angels
die
(chorus)
Reachin' for it all, but she's in too deep
Do angels
die, do angels cry, cry cry cry, do they cry
Do you hear them cry as they're falling down, do
they make a sound...
(Everything she wants, everything she needs) (repeats
out)
