Angels in the heaven demons on the ground 
My head is spinning somewhere in between 
Homes that look like mansions 
Not so far away from the cardboard ones 
That make our streets unclean 

Lord I don't know why 
I just wound up here 
I can outrun the pain 
But I can't explain 
Why I can't outrun the fear 

Guess the angel I had on my shoulder 
Stayed back in my hometown 
And here in angel city 
There just ain't enough angels to go around 

Demons cast their blanket of darkness 
On the ground like nightfall 
And we confuse it with magic in the air 
See that girl with the day-glo halo 
She ain't been here long at all 
Says someday she's going back 
If she can just remember where 

And the guy sleeping on the streets 
Yeah I wonder "does he pray?" 
And I wonder about me 
Why I don't get up and leave 
When I ain't got no reason to stay 

Guess the angel I had on my shoulder 
Stayed back in my hometown 
And here in angel city 
There just ain't enough angels to go around 

Yeah,they say this town is like quicksand 
I say "it's time 
I gotta take my life into my own hands" 

Guess the angel I had on my shoulder 
Stayed back in my hometown 
And here in angel city 
There just ain't enough angels to go around
