Angels in the Wilderness:

By: The Cowboy Junkies:


Are there angels in the wilderness?
I don't know.

I've got my doubts,
but if you say so .

But I've got a feeling
we're doing ok.

We're doing our part,
to make the brambles seem less sharp.

When you ask for bread,
will I give you stone?

Will I make you confess it,
or leave it alone?

If it consoles you
will I take it away?

Hold my hand.
Help me to understand.

You break my heart
again and again.

I'll never get use to that sensation.

All those locusts just trying to get out.

Devouring with tiny bites,
all that lies in site.

Fly forgotten
like a prayer.
Fly forgotten
like a dream.

Fly forgiven.
Fly unseen
Fly, fly, fly
away from me.

Are there angels in the wilderness? I don't know.

But I will give you my love
and watch the bitterness grow.

And then will I take it and hide it away?

And wait on the day
when the balance tips your way.

Fly forgotten like a prayer.
Fly forgotten like a dream.
Fly forgiven. Fly unseen
Fly, fly, fly
away from me.

Are there angels in the wilderness? I don't know. ... ...

I said "Mama, he's crazy and he scares me
But I want him by my side

Though he's wild and he's bad
And sometimes just plain mad

I need him to keep me satisfied

I said "Papa, don't cry cause it's alright
And I see you in some of his ways

Though he might not give me
the life that you wanted
I'll love him the rest of my days

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel,
pure and white as ivory

Soul like a Lucifer,
black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

I said "Brother, you speak to me of passion
You said never to settle for nothing less

Well, it's in the way he walks,
It's in the way he talks
His smile, his anger and his kisses

I said "Sister, don't you understand?"
He's all I ever wanted in a man

I'm tired of sittin' alone
the T.V. every night
Hoping I'm finding a Mr. Right

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel,
pure and white as ivory

Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

He says "Baby, don't listen to what they say
There comes a time when you have to break away"
He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our life
It's time to let them go and become my wife"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel,
pure and white as ivory

Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

Misguided Angel lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group, Paz Junk Music Inc

There's a rock and a field and a dirty sky.
I'm still as corpse, I'm content as a bride,
Thoughts of you and those flyin' shoes
All around me.

One wrong step and it's a long way down
So I triple check the hand holds, stand on firmer ground,
But it's not so easy when the whole mountains
Coming down on you.

So we wait for the morning when we'll stumble on the truth.
Probably fail to recognize it, as we're digging at its roots,
The sorrow and the anger that we've sown
In the fields all around us.

Hey little princess, hey little pea. ...
Come down from your tower and dance with me. ....
Yah you're the fairest one in the land. ....
Try on this glass slipper and give me your hand. ...

... .... ...

There's a rock and a field and a collapsing sky.
I'm precious as a snowman, fragile as a lie,
Thoughts of you and those flyin' shoes
All around me.

I'm afraid of the anger of the hard twisted heart
That beats in the chests of those who are caught
In the ruins of the lives of those
All around them.

I'm afraid of the blood and I'm sick of the bleeding,
The effort it takes just to keep on dreaming
About better days, and better ways
Of living.

Hey little princess, hey little pea, ...
Come down from your tower and dance with me. ....
Yah, you're the fairest one in the land. ....
Try on this glass slipper and give me your hand. ...

Hey little princess, hey little pea, ...
Come down from your tower and dance with me ....
Yah, you're the fairest one in the land. ....
Try on this glass slipper and give me your hand. ...

Here's something for the sports fans out there.

Someday we'll be able to see live sports again. Maybe 1 more year max? IDK.

I hear this **** every day at work and wish to subject RF to it as well. Listen! It's Abba catchy! You dance along with it as you walk to the restroom and try to find what is left of your soul in the U-bend. But the song isn't done and then you remember when your parents dressed you in corduroy pants. By the time the song ends a firefighter is dragging you out out of the toilet. And then...this starts.....


At this point you wish Olivia Newton John will rescue you.

Dear God Muzak!

edit: You're welcome.

From the bowery to the brimstone,
I tried to find your heart
With drugs of initiation,
bottom of the barrel that drops

I understand your causes,
sympathize the motivation
But all the details of this war are just self-infatuation

Pick up the sticks and go home

Manic blood runs thick my friend,
are you looking for a clean escape?
What's left when the locks have all been broken,
young children of authority?

How long can you be agile,
dancing between the alter and the mercy seat?
Here's a chance to make a choice,
are you aware of the fire beneath your feet?

Pick up the sticks and go home

The basement lies within us,
the fear comes through the door
There's nothing left between us,
the fear becomes a roar

Once that wheel is in motion,
don't you lose what you have found
I'm talking about that burning wheel of tongues,
everything that makes it go
round and around

We're all born in the devil's scorn,
they want to see you die
Are you true?
Everything they say is a lie
