Bill Mallonee - Go to Sleep With the Angels lyrics

It's good to see you old friend I couldn't track you down for days I heard you disappeared for spell Just outside Santa Fe Did you go there for a new scene Did your train tracks get all crossed Did you go there for mystics? Did you go there to get lost? Chorus: And burn out like a sunset O'er high deserts out west Burn out with every colour Leaping from your breast And go to sleep with the angels Sleep with the secrets they tell (sell) Burn out like an old star ...and collapse on yourself 25 North and the snow cascades... And for a moment I forget Just how good I had become At dealing from the bottom of the deck There's a well I almost drowned in... And were it not for love You can fall pretty far and pretty hard... But there's always blue sky up above. Idle hands are the devil's workshop.... I was employed there every day Sifting through those sad remains... For a lil' something I might save So, I stole what there was left to steal... From an altar made of bones Took back all those gifts I gave... They were never your's to own
