Oh no, no, no don't think it's easy
    To be the angel that I am,
    When I'm the angel that I am - I am.

When everyday-life puts her arm `round my soul
Telling me `This is right, reality is there'.
And I know it ain't real.
And I know I can't go.
    Oh no, no, no don't think it's easy
    To be the angel that I am,
    When I'm the angel that I am - I am.

When someone in the streets or on the busses put me down
It's so hard to be kind, to control my mind.
`Though I know he's like me,
I know how I aught to be.
    Oh no, no, no don't think it's easy
    To be the angle that I am,
    When I'm the angel that I am - I am.

When no one hears my plea and sadness comes inside
I just can't skip it, no I just cannot flip it.
`Though I know it's unreal,
My ego-thrilling I ...
    Oh no, no, no don't think it's easy
    To be the angle that I am,
    When I'm the angel that I am - I am.

When anger grabs me and I feel upside down
Then it's so hard to see
It's so hard to be
The good I know is inside me,
The good one that I want to be.
    Oh no, no, no don't think it's easy
    To be the angle that I am,
    When I'm the angle that I am - I am.
