Charlie Wood - Angel of Despair Lyrics

You lie like it's your sacred duty
I beg for trouble like a prayer
Can't help mistaking pain for beauty
Oh, my angel of despair

You let me hold you just to show me
How I could ache when you're not there
Why waste the time to get to know me
Oh, my angel of despair

She doesn't need the song I sing her
It entertains her incompletely
She twists a ring around her finger
Thinks of me and smiles discreetly

Your game just got a little rougher
You're with some friend. You're out somewhere
Teach your new devil how to suffer
Oh, my angel of despair

She hates to ask another favour
Please understand, she won't return it
You think you'll be the one to save her
That lesson hurts. She'll help you learn it

And you know I'm dreaming of you
And I know that you don't care
Oh how I'd hate to have to love you
Oh, my angel of despair

How I'd hate to have to love you
Oh, my angel
Oh, my angel
My angel
My angel
