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
