Use Of Those Wings

Come, Let's leave it behind    
And start from scratch again.    
Wash away the blood covering your hands    
Still the sin remains.    
Something's coming from the shadows    
It's a familiar face that only you know.    
I have returned    
To forgive you.    
   
Just please turn, run away.    
Please run away.    
You're the angel mistaken for a demon, I know this isn't you.    
Make use of those wings, it's the only chance you'll ever have.    
Even in death I can see more clearly.    
Turn around to face away,    
Turned around to face away.    
Don't let their lies have their way, I know you know better.    
The flower withering to the icy breaths of devils.    
Consumed into nothingness.    
   
I was stuck in the fire: Who are you?    
You can't recognize all that burnt flesh.    
Who's that holding onto that teddy bear?    
It's the only thing left that's good.    
Still it's more than enough to help me get back to you.    
Look at what's behind you    
I am there.    
   
It was not too late,    
It was never too late.    
To turn away from the fate you blindly followed into.    
Listen to my voice, use it as a guide to get back home.    
I feel my hand touching yours.    
Don't sink your roots in brimstone,    
Don't sink your roots in brimstone.    
Your not meant to be the flower in hell.    
You deserve so much more, please.    
You have to hope someone else has heart    
To see what I see in you.    
   
Please run away,    
Just run away.    
Don't be afraid if they call you weak and look to you in shame.    
You're not what they make you out to be, prove them wrong.    
Pain always comes before comfort.    
Please use thier wings,    
I have been using those wings.    
There's a place just for you somewhere out there, see.    
The grave in which you gave me, I'll be waiting    
In case you need me again...
