Just Tommy - What Do the Angels Envy Lyrics

You say close your eyes and count to three
That's when I see darkness coming after me
I close my eyes and I count to ten
I feel the hand of darkness grab a hold again

I try to fight it, no place to hide it
Can we talk about
How the good have fallen
There was a moment I thought I controlled it
While I'm wonderin'
What do the Angels envy

Welcome to the show boy
Take my hand boy
Close your eyes and count to three this ain't game boy
Constantly obsessing and guessing, never addressing or expressing
The repressing of these gifts, they bring a blessing
Like a never-ending moment
There's a moment to hold it
And in that moment I own it
That's when you think you control it
Put your heart and your soul in it
You can't see me patrollin' it
Cause when you give those moments moments
Our opponents control it
So put your hand-out
I got it planned out
Gonna take you to that place that makes you stand out
Don't look over there, you should be lookin' over here
Because there's something over here they should be talkin' about

I try to fight it, no place to hide it
Can we talk about
How the good have fallen
There was a moment I thought I controlled it
While I'm wonderin'
What do the Angels envy

(Can you feel it?)

Sittin' on the sideline while it's building more aware, more aware
When I'm less aware, get the feeling I'm not all there
So go into a place that's on the inside of my mind
Cause on the inside of my mind
Is where the darkness stays confined
And on the outside
On the outside things are fine
But there's a downside
On the downside I don't get to see the upside to this ride
Cause there isn't any upside when you
Got your eyes closed, and you're countin' to ten

Take my hand and come with me
We're goin to a place beneath the wishin' tree
I don't mind us spendin' some time while we
Talk about - how the good have fallen
There was a moment I thought I controlled it
No time to say goodbye
Cause we all breakdown tryin' to leave this town
While we're wonderin'
What do the Angels' envy
