Blue October - Angel Lyrics
Im wishing the bath water cleanShe hides in the back and is unseenI take off the mask that surrounds meLook me in the faceWhat do you seeI feel like a boy the age of 13My body grows upBut my mind stays the sameLook me in the faceWhat do you see?How do you tell an angelThat you dont believe in God?Why do I feelLike such a strangerI look aroundI look aroundAnd all my friends are goneBut oh would you be me?Because I would be youOh youd be happyOnly if you wanted toAnd how would you treat me?Because I would treat youOh youd be happyOnly if you wanted toHow do you tell your Father,That you want him to notice you?Why does this seem like such a bother?When mom says youd be better off deadBut I want to see youI still want to see youOh would you call me?Oh its not hard tooIm the first oneOn your birthdayAnd oh would you write meOn my birthdayGraduation, was yesterdayYesterdayOhHow do you hold the special victim?When they push you awayWhen theyve beenRaped on the insideTorn on the outsideThe dirt and ugly from the stain that they try to hideTouched in private placesEmbarassed facesTo scared to ask for helpOh would you be me?Because I would be youOh youd be happyOnly if you wanted toAnd how would you treat me?Because I would treat youYoud be happyOnly if you wanted toIm wishing the bath water cleanShe hides in the back and is unseenI take off the mask that surrounds meLook me in the faceWhat do you see?
