You`ve got a dangerous background
And everything you`ve dreamed of
Yeah you`re the Dark Angel
It don`t show when you break up
And I`m the one who oughta know
I`m the one left in the dust
Yeah I`m the broken hearted fool
Who was never quite enough
Chorus
I`m an insider, I been burned by the fire
And I`ve had to live with some hard promises
I`ve crawled through the briars -- I`m an insider
It`s a circle of deception
It`s a hall of strangers
It`s a cage without a key
You can feel the danger
And I`m the one who oughta know
I`m the one you couldn`t trust
Yeah I`m the lonely silent one
I`m the one left in the dust
(Repeat Chorus)
I`ll bet you`re his masterpiece
I`ll bet you`re his self-control
Yeah you`ll become his legacy
His quiet world of white and gold
And I`m the one who oughta know
I`m the one you left to rust
Not one of your twisted friends
I`m the one you couldn`t love
(Repeat Chorus)
