Halos

(album: The Witness - 2008)

From the beginning you were dead
Such a pointless life you've led
How many times can you break
(Before you fall apart)
So many ways that I can blame
All of the choices that you've made
How many times must I pray
You'll stay

I know we'll make it out alright
I know we'll somehow make it by...

Running alone and terrified
From all the demons in your mind
How many times will I pray
(I'm down on my knees)
I'm trying to save you from yourself
If you just knew the way I felt
I've struggled constantly but..

I'm finding peace with each day
Hope will help me to wait

I know we'll make it out alright
I know we'll somehow make it by
It's been so hard to see
Blinded by misery
I'll follow you and clear the way
Help fix the life you've thrown away
I see fear in your eyes
Painful truth

Innocence
Breeds halos
The fallen shy
Resistance
To failure
The evil lie...

I know we'll make it out alright
I know we'll somehow make it by
It's been so hard to see
Blinded by misery
I'll follow you and clear the way
Help fix the life you've thrown away
I see fear in your eyes
Painful truth realized...
