Fallen Angel

Black clouds in the distance

I can feel a change in the wind

There's never been a season quite like this one's been

And the leaves are swirlin' and the hairs rise on my skin

I should go outside but I just keep on standing

When that moment comes I'll be blown away

Cause I don't have the sense to come in from the rain

I'll be broken in half before I bend

No I won't survive another moment like this

The screen door slams in spite of me

The dogs are staring out the window

But I don't move my feet

Cause I know my place is out here in the storm

With all the other fallen angels who have been here before

When that moment comes I'll be blown away

Cause I don't have the sense to come in from the rain

I'll be broken in half before I bend

No I won't survive another moment like this

And when that moment comes

And the winds subside

And the storm moves on

And there are no more lies

They'll gather on this porch

And lift their eyes to the sky

And say farewell to the Fallen Angel

Who never learned to fly

And when that moment comes she just blew away

She didn't have the sense or the strength

To come in from the pourin rain

She never did bend, she just broke in half

Cause you can't survive too many moments like that

No you can't survive too many moments like that
