Angels (Can't Help You Now) lyrics - Def Leppard

 It's a slow news day

But it's gonna happen anyway

Lock it up and lose the key

A truth we'll never see

Is just thrown away

And hidden from us everyday

A secret that just has to be

Is buried on page thirty three

It's slippin' away

It's slippin' away

Don't let it break you down

It's slippin' away

It's slippin' away

Don't let it break you

Another deadline lost

Another promise gone at any cost

You can't see the damage done

A battle never won

If only you could see

Your fingerprints all over me

Savaged by your poison hand

Your wishes never my command

It's slippin' away

It's slippin' away

Don't let it break you down

It's slippin' away

It's slippin' away

Don't let it break you

Angels can't help you now

There's no time to reason why

Angels can't help you now

And it's too late to even try

Angels can't help you now

And with the touch of your hand

You cast your shadow over the sun

And now it's done

Angels can't help you now

There's no time to reason why

Angels can't help you now

And it's too late to even try

Angels can't help you now

'Cause with the touch of your hand

You cast your shadow over the sun

Angels can't help you now

There's no time to turn around

Angels can't help you now

'Cause it's such a long way down

Angels can't help you now

And in the palm of my hand

The one thing that can still make me feel

The one thing with the power to heal

There's a crack in the sky

So say your goodbyes

Welcome to the end of the end
