lyrics

Danny wrote his name and Erin’s
On the overpass, to stake his claim
On a girl from a world on the other side of town
Where they playing a different game

And Danny knew it was Erin’s parents
Who had the cops come warn him to stay away
But his ribs will heal, they’ll have to put him behind steel
Otherwise it ends today

She got angels looking over her
He got angels overlooking him

He said “The heart wants what the heart wants
And the heart don’t want you
If you ever come near my daughter again,
Lord, I’m telling you
You don’t wanna die tonight
But son, I think you might
Have angels overlooking you”

She got angels looking over her
He got angels overlooking him

She got a back yard made of water
He got a front yard filled with cars
She got a future so bright it’s crazy

Danny scratched his name and Erin’s
Into the cell wall, above his bed
You know he loves her just the same
Even if she never knew his name
Until he shot her daddy dead

She got angels looking over her
He got angels overlooking him

about

DAMIEN DONE

DAMIEN DONE is the nom de plume of Damien Moyal, best known as frontman of iconic 90s hardcore punk bands As Friends Rust.

Here, Moyal takes a sharp and decided turn from the angst of his past, instead crooning unnerving, voyeuristic tales over bleak numbers that at once touch on the doom and drawl of swampy grunge and the cold, blue sneer of dark 80s pop and post-punk.
