Older Angel

I don't know
 Who dug this hole
 We're standing in
 All I know is that
 It's dark and deep
 We've cried out
 To heaven
 And lifted up
 Our hands
 But I kind of got
 This feeling
 We ain't getting
 Nowhere man
 We need
 An older angel
 If we're
 Gonna make it through
 One who's been around
 This block
 We're on a time or two
 If he knows
 All the angles
 Then we might
 Have a prayer
 We need
 An older angel tonight
 If we're gonna get there
 People make
 Their choices
 I have heard it said
 Maybe that's the truth
 Or maybe not
 When you're lying
 In this clover
 With a bullet
 In your heart
 Tell me what
 It really matters
 When the shooter
 Finds the mark
 One who knows the score
 Who's walked
 Through the doors of heaven
 One who's been around
 One who's fallen down
 And learned to fly again
