The Drugs These Angels Give

Common courtesy dictates
That I pay attention
And learn From my mistakes
I need a little divine intervention
So when this church denies me entry
You'll see me become much more than a man
No longer friends but enemies

Green with blasphemy
I'm such a sinner
Reckless as hell
The one who's choice is to live
Hooked on forever

Life's easier with
The drugs these angels give

Never been one to correct the silence
The poker face buys its rights
Face cards galore
I'm hitting on tens and sevens
Blessin me every chance you get
As I'm trying to buy my way into heaven

My fear used to respect this place
I recognize the darkness that I'm supposed to face
A love song plays
And I'm well adjusted to the sanity
Of this metronome

You'll hate the way I have to remind you
Absolution bestowed upon thee
Your prayers will have to save you
And in time
you'll understand the life I live

It's easier with
The drugs these angels give
