Decline of the Halo

Where I'd stand the shadow would reign
Covering every aspect left to the naked eye
I'd watch the world fly straight by
But I have just forgotten how to fly

My wings are tattered
My halo
Strangles
Strands of glistening light dangle
As a little mobile to hand over my sleepy grave
Halo
Takes away the air I have struggled to breathe
My wings
Bleeding, but its good to know I'm still alive

I walk baby steps
Making my way to the top
It's painful and demeaning
But now I know what to do

My wings are tattered my dear
Can you hear this?
Misery
See the
Stitches?
That struggle to hide
The fact that…

My wings are tattered
My halo
Suffocates
Strands of glistening light dangle
As a little reminder I'm still a child
Halo
Death wish
Takes the air they forged me to breathe
My wings
Bleeding but it's good to know I'm still alive

I'm just alive
Still just a child
Only a child

My wings are tattered
Because of all the times I fell
My halo
Suffocates
I grew out of it long ago…

My wings are tattered
My halo
Suffocates
Strands of glistening light dangle
As a little reminder I'm still a child
Halo
Death wish
Takes the air they forged me to breathe
My wings
Bleeding but it's good to know I'm still alive
