There was once a girl who braved the world
She fought hard and she fought strong
Until suddenly everything went wrong
And even though inside she was breaking –
She helped the others
She glued them together
Always wishing for some glue of her own
Or someone to call home
She just wants someone to help her
But she’ll never ask for help
Because even angels have to fall
There was once a girl who never gave up
She stood tall and proud-
A rose among thorns
A diamond in the rough
But she had demons of her own-
She faced them every day at home
And she’s losing her power
She just wants it to stop
And she trying her hardest to pretend it okay
With a smile on her face
With tears in her eyes
She’s so very important but she’s dying inside
Because even angels have to fall sometime
There was once a girl who fell into the darkness
She tried so hard to find her way out
But life destroys all hope in the dark
And she’s silently crying for someone to help her
But no one ever listens until it’s too late
And her skin is marred by the demons that envelop her soul
She just wants release
Just wants a little less pain
Because even angels have to fall
There was once a girl who stood out of the crowd
Her strength made her different
Her head never bowed
But the world is cruel
And people are as well
An before she knew it
Her strength led her straight to hell
And now she’s falling
Her concern still for everyone else
She doesn’t realise she has all she needs to fly
Because even angels have to fall sometime
There was once a girl who let talent rule her mind
She forgot who she was and lived for someone else
She acted as her talents suggest
But always only meant it as a stupid jest
And now the world has brought her down
Told her she was never good enough
And she’s screaming out for someone to help her
But every ones gone
They got sick of her jests
No one realised it was all an act
To cover up the crying girl inside
And she doesn’t know what to do anymore
Because even angels have to fall
There was once a girl who pretended for a while
She was always the steady one in the group
And when she wasn’t she covered it up
She didn’t spread around her problems
She didn’t ask for help
And soon got lost in okay
No one asks about her emotions
About how she’s feeling today
And she’s starting to realise that this wasn’t the way
And that maybe- She’s not okay
Because even angels have to fall sometime
There was once a girl whose stubbornness controlled her soul
She wouldn’t let her emotions show
She covered up
And let the world be cruel
She didn’t realise what a little help would do
And now the world’s crashing in on her
She doesn’t know what to do
And she forgets the sun when there’s clouds
And that there will always be a light in the dark
She thinks breaking makes her weak
But no one else feels the same
Because even angels have to fall
There was once a girl who ran away
She ran from people and she ran from yesterday
She hides in the future
And waits for the day when she feels okay
She’s hiding behind her ever after
She doesn’t know what to do
Or how to feel
Or who can help
And she’s drowning in her happy ending
Because it’s not happy yet
No one she’s how badly she’s breaking
Or that she no longer wants to live
And she’s beginning to wonder if they would have helped at all
If they ever bothered to see her crawl
Because even angels have to fall
And all these angels have fallen to hell
They’re stuck in the fire
Deep down the well
But they help each other
Together they shine bright
And maybe – just maybe
With a little help they could save themselves
They could turn on the light
But right now they are down there,
Crying silently at night
They hold onto each other
And they hold on tight
But the worlds left them on the corner
Waiting for the day
And it rains too much for them to fly away
So for now they will stay there
They will stay there till dusk
Until everyone realises they are angels in the dust
