When Angels Fly Away

I'll make the right decision

To pack up and leave

Not turning back

A new path to cleave

Turning around a life

Is much harder than it seems

It's hard enough to find a place

To lay your head to dream

A broken heart

Has no quick fix

Nothing ever more

Ever just clicks

Life goes down

Down for the count

Lying on the streets

To sick to shout

Am I dreaming

Or am I alive?

How could life

Take such a sky dive?

On your back

Drawing your final breath

Eyes roll back

Welcome your death

Last sight you see

Is a bright light

Your guardian angel

Leaves and takes flight

On your final hour

Nothing left that day

Its the saddest thing

When angels fly away
