Your paper wings got ruined in the rain
|
Coat hanger halo got rusted
|
The lace fell off the dress you made
|
Your the saddest little angel
|
Mascara left a sour taste
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And I wish I was there when you took that fall
|
I'm too weak to pick you up
|
But I would've laid down in this puddle beside you
|
'Cause it's all that I can do
|
I didn't have the heart to tell you
|
It's really bad
|
It's really bad this time
|
|
Like wild horses running, scared
|
From a storm that's too much to bare
|
It's sad, the things you used to fear
|
Don't seem so bad (not so bad)
|
Don't let them scare you
|
|
And I pushed your bed to the window today.
|
You're still not well enough TURNED YOUR visitors away
|
I fight these tears by your bedside
|
How dare I let you see me cry
|
|
I didn't have the heart to tell you
|
It's really bad
|
It's really bad this time
|
|
Your wings weren't meant for this
|
This weather that no one guessed
|
No calm before the storm
|
And it's gone before the panic sets
|
So let's take our time with this,
|
Bleach the mud from off your dress,
|
You make such an innocent mess in all of this.
|
|
[Chorus]
