Little Angels

Sad sad thoughts run wild again
As if to cast them in, and spin, outside this atmosphere
You're a version of an angel, like everyone else
Why do you do the things you do that way
It's a waste, and not a shame
That all those years left you and them, on the edge
Of a ride that wasn't what it should have been

A thousand screams silenced by innocence
Some one's inherited lack
Leave a million dreams broken again
If I threw my heart in that fire and rain
It would not change a thing
So, who has to say something for one to hear?
There's nothing to tell anyone about this fear

Close your eyes
Lay your hands by your side
Even in the darkness of night
A reflection you see
A perfect legacy you leave behind
So little angels who were once lost
Will find their way home in time

Love Cry

Let it go, and let it in
Don't fight that fight that should never begin
It's hard to let them show you something you don't know
Nothing is dragging you in

Don't let that demon take anymore
Your half heart is not who you are
It is real, we hold your hand tight
Even if your hand doesn't feel

Break that horror scene hiding in your eyes
An image you can continually give life
Beyond the grey clouds that won't seem to go
Are loving eyes who won't let you go

A heart, one in a million
Broken and healed a thousand times
Believe the demon, believe that bright star
Despite it all, you will always know who you are

Sober

It's my last bottle, need to stay a little longer
It's not so bad, takes away the black, when I won't see any farther
You might understand me, I'll never understand you
Pained in your heartaches, a place you would run from if you only knew

I'll drive all night, for you to stop shaking
Inside my head, wish it was me instead, want your heart to stop breaking
I'll question it, and you'll ask what for
Why you can't God'am cry anymore

No one around
Free you from ghosts that tide
I'll be there I promise
A familiar reflection in your eyes

Shadowed lights, on those empty streets
When you can't hold the pain, with broken chains, you'll only see
Faded rules, and empty grace
Doesn't change, you're still that angel and your beautiful face

It's my last drink, at a place where I'll stay
Forever, this movie plays, where your by my side today
And when stars get low, only one thing you need to know
I'll hold your hallowed smile, wherever I might go

No one around
When your hands are tied
I'll be there I swear
Never once stopped hearing your cries

Look up again, can you take my hand
There's somewhere we have to go
Don't be afraid, you're still the same
Just let me take you home
