Album: Splinter

Destroying Angel


I know you know my head's not in this now
Nothing you could keep so keep me down
Like the stones beneath the water that you walk on to be taller
The hands you stuck together when you prayed you'd wait forever
Just another fragile angel heart
Falling down on lead wings torn apart

The words beneath my skin
The ink that put you in
Destroying all the things you left around
Earthbound coming down

So what you have the nerve to call a friend
Is starved of all the sense to make amends
I'm the glass you break to touch but you never want me much
Like the view across the water from the shoes and two feet smaller
I know it doesn't pay to be this hurt
Falling off the morning getting worse
