Sneakin' Into Heaven
(专辑: What A Heart Is Beating For - 2007)

halo shuffles up to me He asks me for a
coin, and mumbles "Thank you, and God bless you" Good deeds and halos, not sure what I

kid flashing a
fake I.D Trying to slip past the

borrowed halo Hoping no one notices my broken wings Peeking through these gates and thinking, Lord have mercy I'm never gonna make it if it's up to me Hey Mr. Pedro, I
have a
little confession I
don't belong here, and this halo isn't mine Peter laughs and says "Well, boy, haven't you noticed? We've all been broken, but now we're doing just fine 'Cause nobody's good enough And up here we're all the

borrowed halo Hoping no one notices my broken wings Peeking through these gates and thinking, Lord have mercy I'm never gonna make it if it's up to me
