Angel Wings

The way dust settles on the floor, it gets contagious

We're 20 off to war and then the days are up

In the blink of a lifetime

Now wait up

I want to feel the sun rise on my face just one more time

I want to watch this city wake love

Let my brakes rust and roll through the night

Now my friends are gone, and while my minds still strong

And while my heart can pump for new love

It's a marathon

It's a bated breathe

When you hold my heart

It's a weight in my chest

Like a pile of coal

For the diamond ring

All the time that you stole

Worth everything

Carry me far away

Angel wings

Maybe life is like a screen and we're the movie

Shine a light, our scene into darkness

As people stare

What chance its written like its scripted, so romantic

Until it's time to leave and all the floors stick

Will you stay in your chair

For the marathon

For the bated breathe

For the girl and her heart

For the weight in your chest

Like a pile of coal

For a diamond ring

All the time that you stole

Worth everything

But this time it feels different

Yeah this time I won't look back

Oh this time I'll live it better

Yeah this time I won't lose track

In the silent white indifference

Of the mile signs long passed

And if time won't make it better

Then I'll rise up with my glass

And look around this place

If I can't find a face that know

Like vines grown over the old walls and chalk lines

Oh Lord how the road calls tonight

Like a marathon

For the bated breathe

Till you hold my heart

It's a weight in my chest

Like a pile of coal

For the diamond ring

All the time that you stole

Worth everything

Oh carry me far away

Angel wings
