No Life Singed Her

take me down from the ridge

where the summer ends

we'll watch the city spread out

just like a jet's flame

I've got a secret for you

I cut your angel in two

I left her bleeding

and soaked it with a dry sponge

no life has singed her now

no life has singed her now

no life has singed her now

I can see it fade

we've got a license to live

it's our only one

if it expires we float up to the dust haze

I've got a secret for you

I cut your angel in two

I saw her spinning and dripping

on your new dress

no life has singed her now

no life has singed her now

no life has singed her now

I can see it fade
