The wings of an angel

The wings of an angel

Are as fragile as a beating heart

 

Because for every time we cause it grief

It begins to tear itself apart

 

Lighter than a feather

And as white as their tears

 

Nothing can destroy the wings of an angel

Nothing but our fear

 

But this is the reality

For a fear has become a truth

 

Because all of our angels

Have disappeared

 

We have committed an unspeakable crime

An irreversible theft

 

We have stolen the wings of our angels

And now they have nothing left

 

Some will never forgive our evil

And wingless they will always remain

 

But many have pardoned our mistakes

They simply want to end the pain

 

They wish to find their wings again

To once again take flight

 

To soar through the skies high above

And touch the stars at night

 

But this is only a dream to them

A fantasy if you will

 

Because they know what we are

They know we will never be still

 

We will never stop

Not until the seas turn to blood and the sky to fire

 

They will watch as history repeats itself

As the world attempts something dire

 

But their wings have already been stolen

Their lives now only remain

 

But in the end, this is you

And this is me

We are one the same

 

We are the ones that will watch and suffer

And at the same time agree

 

We will accept full responsibility

And yet we will deny it and say we were led astray

 

Because such is the way we live

To always look the other way

 

But it was not always like this

The lies and deceit

 

Once we were angels

Once we were complete

 

But now things have changed

A greater evil has rooted in our minds

 

For we have stolen our own wings

And we have lifted the clouding blinds

 

This world was never meant to save us

But was never meant to die

 

But when it does and takes it with us

We will never be able to fly
