Broken Halos

(album: What Are We Waiting For? - 2022)

Got up on this high horse
Couldn't find a way back down
Trying to find a true north
But everything's the wrong way round

Busy breaking down the walls, just to build up fences
Try to see the other side but no one's bending
Way too shy to bare our souls
So we shout opinions, but nobody listens

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those
Broken halos
Broken halos

Untangle all the wires
And stretch out our dusty wings
Ooh, let's fly into the wild
And get a clearer view of everything

See the Technicolor grace, reaching over mountains
Showing there's another way, another way

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those
Broken halos
Broken halos

You will rise, you will rise, you will find your strength
You can soar, you can soar on the eagle's wings
Don't you dare, don't you dare
Don't you hang your head, don't you hang your head

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those

For heaven's sake
We're missing hope
Been saving face
And throwing stones

So take your mistakes
Just let 'em go
'Cause don't we all wear those
Broken halos
Broken halos
Broken halos
