A Halo In The Dirt

You never gave yourself away

I promise that your secret's safe

And I believe that no one else could understand

All about it

Feel the movement of your eyes

Down the corners of my mind

Could you leave me with some dignity and grace

Think about it

And I wanted you to go

With the silence you control

You can leave me like a halo in the dirt

Just a little 'til you stop

Slip the poison in my cup

You say fallen angels do just as they please

Don't cry about it

But it's jezebel tonight

Turning music into fire

A fading melody like ashes in the breeze

So sing about it

And I wanted you to go

With the silence you control

And you can leave me like a halo in the dirt

You used to need be to be strong

You used to tell me we belong

In the story book you were writing in your head

Oh but you get down and I get down

And you get down and I get down

The autumn leaves have left their trees

And the story's come undone

So sing about it

Don't leave me on the side

Don't crucify my mind

Don't just add it up to see what it's all worth and tell me 'bout it

And I wanted you to go

With the silence you control

You can leave me like a halo in the dirt

A halo in the dirt
