Another hard day in the city
Sweat pouring down oh it ain't to pretty
Working your fingers to the bone
Trying to get blood from a stone

Whip it cracks just like thunder
Some survive her, most go under
Dancing this ball and chain around
It ain't no dirt to be found

(Angel of the city)
Now you're watching over me
(Angel of the city)
Tell me where can you be.
In time I'll find you, angel of the city

The streets they scream, with desire
The air is thick with dreams on fire
And this ain't any kind of life
Living on the edge of a knife

(Angel of the city)
Are you watching over me?
(Angel of the city)
Tell me where can you be.
In time I'll find you, angel of the city
(Angel of the city)
Come on show your face
(Angel of the city)
Free me from this place
In time I'll find, you

Heaven send her to my door
I can't hide away here anymore

(Angel of the city)
Are you watching over me?
(Angel of the city)
Tell me where can you be
In time you know I'll find you
In time you know I'll find you
In time I'll find you, angel of the city

We're not indestructible,
baby better get that straight
I think it's unbelievable
how you give into the hands of fate

Some things are worth fighting for some
feelings never die
I'm not askin' for another chance
I just want to know why

There's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
There's no easy way out givin' in can't be wrong

I don't want to pasify you
I don't want to drag you down
but I'm feelin like a prisoner
like a stranger in a no named town

I see all the angry faces
afraid that could be you and me
talkin about what might have been
I'm thinkin about what I used to be

there's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
ther's no easy way out givin' in can't be wrong

Baby,baby we can shed this skin
we can know how we feel inside
instead of goin' down and endless road
not knowin if we're dead or alive

some things are worth fightin for
some feelings never die
I'm not askin for another chance
I just want to know why

there's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
there's no easy way out givin in givin in can't be wrong no
there's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
there's no easy no easy no easy way out

(repeat and fade)

We're not indestructible,
baby better get that straight
I think it's unbelievable
how you give into the hands of fate

Some things are worth fighting for some
feelings never die
I'm not askin' for another chance
I just want to know why

There's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
There's no easy way out givin' in can't be wrong

I don't want to pasify you
I don't want to drag you down
but I'm feelin like a prisoner
like a stranger in a no named town

I see all the angry faces
afraid that could be you and me
talkin about what might have been
I'm thinkin about what I used to be

there's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
ther's no easy way out givin' in can't be wrong

Baby,baby we can shed this skin
we can know how we feel inside
instead of goin' down and endless road
not knowin if we're dead or alive

some things are worth fightin for
some feelings never die
I'm not askin for another chance

there's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
there's no easy way out givin in givin in can't be wrong no
there's no easy way out there's no shortcut home
there's no easy no easy no easy way out
