Lyrics

You might as well face it
There are beings more powerful than you
Than your armies, your oil and your gold
They descend from the heavens
Fly down from the clouds
Let me tell you they're not from this world

Why do they say the skies are raining
And why won't somebody just tell us the truth
Eyes looking down can see that our government's lying
Again
And the angels are crying

Oh, the angels are crying
And they're watching over you
If you listen you can hear them
The angels, angels are crying
Angels are crying

All your power and your riches
You can't them when you die
Leave your children behind you
When it's too late for them to ask why
Gasoline will burn
Accusations and bullets will fly
But you'll go down in history
Paint your soul on our blood red sky

Why do they say the skies are raining
Why won't somebody just tell us the truth
Eyes looking down can see that our planet is dying
And the angels, angels are crying
Angels are crying

Oh, the angels are crying
And they're watching over you
If you listen you can hear them
The angels, angels are crying
Angels are crying
Angels are crying
