Even Angels Cry
[Verse 1]
Every day a child is born
No one knows what he's here for
Was he born a sinner?
So fix him now while you still can
Turn that boy into a man
He's gotta be a winner
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone's in on the deal
There's only certain things
That a boy can feel
[Chorus]
And we lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie all the time
All the time
And we try, try, try
To get by, by, by
But all the while
Behind all the smiles
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[Verse 2]
Every day a child is born
No one knows what she's here for
Was she born a body?
So fix her hair and stand her tall
Or else she'll be invisible
Forget she has a heartbeat
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone knows that's true
There's only certain things
That a girl can do
[Chorus]
And we lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie all the time
All the time
And we try, try, try
To get by, by, by
But all the while
Behind all the smiles
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
(Cry, cry)
[Bridge]
Hey you over there
Disappearing like a ghost
There's so much in your soul
That the world will never know
[Chorus]
If we lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie all the time
All the time
And we try, try, try
To get by, by, by
But all the while
Behind all the smiles
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Even angels cry
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
