all angels gone lyrics
by Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Angels come in
Lined around the corners of my room
Thirteen angels falling
Laughing at the holes in me
They’re saying “throw that sh*t out the window”
f*ck this song
All angels gone
All angels gone
All angels gone
All angels gone
f*ck this song
All angels gone
All angels gone
f*ck this song
All angels gone
f*ck this song
All angels gone
All angels
All angels
All angels
Gone
[Instrumental]
[Mother]
Well I’m glad you’re okay
It’s been hard standing back and trying not to set my—
Telling I’m—
Went back into therapy to help me through this crisis and I—
Telling my little...
Shrink, I said you know I’ll be glad
When I’m really settled into this relationship
I said the mother part wants to be the typical mother
And call and nag and...
I recognize I have to step back and give space and time and...
Um, make it his decision, so
[Son]
Yep
[Mother]
Just so it’s not misinterpreted that when I don’t call
It’s not ‘cause I don’t want to
[Son]
Yeah yeah yeah
You don’t have to worry about that
[Mother]
Now you— I knew I’d get it outta you, see?
[Son]
*laughs*
[Mother]
‘Yeah yeah yeah’ *laughs*
Well I’ve been pretty much isolated so this has been
You know...
Been a growing experience in my life
I guess at 43 I’m still growing
Because for so many years
I was in a drug-induced coma I think
[Son]
Yeah well, I mean don’t write off your history that easily
You know?
[Mother]
*Pause* I love you, I’m glad you're ok
Have you talked to Father John?
[Son]
No, no I...
[Mother]
I haven’t either
[Son]
...haven’t spoken to him in...
Couple months
[Mother]
You know I’m still around
Do you need anything?
[Son]
No no, no it’s fine
Yep
Yep
Everything’s ok
