Generate meaning
1
She smelled like two am
2
Took him back to her place
3
Where all the saints adorned the walls.
4
To never ending from grace
5
He knew he should leave
6
And this could only turn cold
7
She was a bad bad girl
8
So he told her so
9
Under the shadows engulfed
10
He had the whisper of lust
11
He said 'no touching tonight'
12
She closed her eyes in his trust
13
She said 'tuck me in'
14
He knew his judgment was sound
15
Still he pulled back the sheets
16
And said
17
[Chorus]
18
You better lie down 'cause the angels are watching
19
She closed her eyes and said with the talking
20
You can hurt me do whatever you like'
21
Her every word was in italics
22
As it would fall from her lips
23
The walls were made of broken promises
24
He hoped this wouldn't be his.
25
She said 'tell me what to do'
26
He knew right then he was done
27
Felling lonely and confused
28
He said
29
[Chorus]
30
You better lie down the angels are watching'
31
She closed her eyes and said with the talking
32
You can hurt me do whatever you like'
33
So he said 'shut your mouth girl the angels are listening'
34
She crossed herself now the moments are missing
35
You can hurt me do whatever you like'
36
Glancing through the curtain
37
Questions unheard of
38
She spoke in third person
39
And he had seen everyone
40
Awkward and embittered
41
Said 'shut the door when you go'
42
Perhaps he should've reconsidered (oh no)
43
When he said
44
[Chorus]
45
You better lie down the angels are watching
46
She closed her eyes and said with the talking
47
You can hurt me do whatever you like'
48
So he said 'shut your mouth girl the angels are listening'
49
She crossed herself now the moments are missing
50
You can hurt me do whatever you like'
