Angel to admire
I wrote a song
It didn't make a sound
Instead it broke a heart
From there; word got around
And now it's stuck in all your heads
For in this moment love is dead
Is that really all my fault
Chorus
'Cause if I could choose the way it goes, you wouldn't know my name from hers
You lit a smile
That cigarette started a light
We smelt like burnt out fire
Still an angel to admire
But I didn't make a sound
As our hearts smoldered underground
Am I really what you want
'Cause if I could choose the way it goes, you wouldn't know my name from hers
Maybe I've been mistaken;
should feel I'm worth it
Or maybe I'm just done with hearing
certain words that make me sick
The abuse has been overused
It's tired
I'm an angel to admire
But sensitive to touch
And it was all too much
To force in one night
I wrote a song
It didn't make a sound
Instead it broke a heart
From there; word got around
And now it's stuck in all your heads
For in this moment love is dead
And I can't tag along
'Cause if I could choose the way it goes, you wouldn't know my name from hers
It didn't make a sound
Instead it broke a heart
From there; word got around
And now it's stuck in all your heads
For in this moment love is dead
Is that really all my fault
Chorus
'Cause if I could choose the way it goes, you wouldn't know my name from hers
You lit a smile
That cigarette started a light
We smelt like burnt out fire
Still an angel to admire
But I didn't make a sound
As our hearts smoldered underground
Am I really what you want
'Cause if I could choose the way it goes, you wouldn't know my name from hers
Maybe I've been mistaken;
should feel I'm worth it
Or maybe I'm just done with hearing
certain words that make me sick
The abuse has been overused
It's tired
I'm an angel to admire
But sensitive to touch
And it was all too much
To force in one night
I wrote a song
It didn't make a sound
Instead it broke a heart
From there; word got around
And now it's stuck in all your heads
For in this moment love is dead
And I can't tag along
'Cause if I could choose the way it goes, you wouldn't know my name from hers

Oh my, that is quite a question. My inspiration comes from pretty much everywhere. My inspiration for this piece was actually a photo I re-blogged on tumblr, I decided to write a song to it. Of course this was a while ago and I've edited it since so please forgive the unaltered version.http://tumblahsawrus.tumblr.com/post/45006159361/angel-to-admire-inspired-by-photo-i-wrote-a this link will bring up the picture and the origina; song wrote for it. It's a pink haired angel playing a broken piano outdoors.
