You say I am an angel,
So where are my wings?
There is sin in my breath,
Because I love all dark things,
And I try to capture my light,
But I can only find dark lies,
As I sit here in the solitude,
Looking for truth behind my eyes.
You tell me to worship a God,
That He will save me from this dream,
But when I did I fell even harder,
So this so-called angel could only scream,
And I know I'll never be normal,
Because I'm never really pure,
I'm so uncertain inside,
When will I be sure?
And as you lay next to me,
Can you hear every tear that falls?
Every scream I've made?
Everything that crawls?
I can't be an angel,
I'm drowning in disgrace,
And I hate anyone who comes near,
Suffocating in your holy embrace.
In my darkened heart I see death,
And other forms of pain,
All the times I've been hurt or rejected,
All the times I've cried in the rain,
There is no hope for me,
Hope is far too fragile,
I never had a chance,
Because I'm no angel.
