(Lyrics) 
In the arms of the angel, 
Fly away from here, 
From this dark, cold hotel room, 
And the endlessness that you fear. 
You are pulled from the wreckage, 
Of your silent reverie. 
You're in the arms of the angel, 
May you find some comfort here.

Written Text

Every day in America, thousands of animals suffer from cruelty and neglect. 
Thousands were rescued last year, but for thousands of others help came too late.
