lyrics

When you're on the high wire looking down
Your poise must be perfect
There's no casual strolling around
Each step is deliberate

You've paid for your safety
In focus and fear
But they won't last for long
Quit striving for control, and

Lean on the angels, angel
Watch over you
Lean on the angels, angel
Helping you through
When you're outside your comfort zone
You just have to lean on the angels, angel

When your confidence fades away
You slip from the wire
You're not falling in this world of speed, no
The ground's rising higher

You're travelling faster
Than the smell of your fear
But that will catch you soon
You're never in control, so

Lean on the angels, angel
Watch over you
Lean on the angels, angel
Helping you through
When you're outside your comfort zone
You just have to lean on the angels, angel

Well they told me you'd fallen at ten forty four
You'd been leant on by the worst of your demons
For far too long
At such a low ebb you could not get back to the well
But angels guided your footsteps
And sang you this song

No-one can be with you
Up there alone
So when your demons come
Forget about control, and

Lean on the angels, angel
Watch over you
Lean on the angels, angel
Helping you through
When you're outside your comfort zone
You just have to lean on the angels, angel
