I don't know what to say
When angels lose their way
When they cry on earth
because they miss their home

I find myself thinking
you can't leave me here
alone in the darkness
with all that I fear

And I'm urging this bus to go faster
Past all these asylums covered in plaster

And lightning shatters the ground
I try not to think about how you'll be found
Funny, to use the word 'found' about angels we lost
And oh what a cost.

Stop please, take time to think
Don't fall now, when you're on the brink of it all
Dear heart, don't fall

How do you tell an angel that they're why you're here?
Despite all the fear.

And I'm urging this bus to go faster
Past all these asylums covered in plaster

Funny,
to use the word found about angels we lost.
