A pretty thing

A twisted form of angel, he's a demon in the light. Brilliant array of feathers 'fore the eagle prepares his strike. Tsunami risen to ruin from a gentle hazel tide. I came to love his pretty things since pretty never lies. But beauty couldn't hide the burning sun, he wrought me dry. Oasis wasn't deep enough to stifle up my cries. I wrestled brave with golden chains that locked me to his side. Securely bound on his wicked ride, I'm afraid of pretty things. Yet, I decline to run when my heart, it sings: What a pretty thing. What a pretty gooorgeous thing - to see a demon while there's light. Ready to burn though he owns the night. His vices I thought a pretty thing, I'd faith, drowned in his soulless eyes, that his pretty must not lie.
