Once again, I’ve mistaken you for an angel
Maybe you are
I don’t know
And I could’ve brought you the moon
But it wouldn’t be fair for the rest of the world
So instead, I’m trying to **** a few words out of language
Hoping they’d make better sense than a space rock dying to impress
And I know there is a mansion inside of you that’s burning
But who said angels aren’t supposed to burn
Do not be afraid of the broken walls and shattered windows
Do not be afraid of the roof waiting to collapse or the doors slamming like thunder trying to rip their way out and run
Do not be afraid of losing me
And do not tell me you’re not because I’ve seen you pull feathers out of your skin
Blowing into them as they fall to the groud
I am sorry
I cannot bring rain to shut down the fire
But, Do not be afraid
Angels aren’t supposed to burn
