Lost and alone
In the world she did roam
Pretending to be alive.
Did she ever feel free
As she longed to be
Without losing some part of her life?
Angel of Death
Come take her last breath,
Come and set her free.
Angel of Death,
She's broken, bereft
Give her peace in eternity.
The angel is falling
To Heaven she's calling.
Without wings she cannot fly.
She can't trust herself
Or anyone else
And she's losing her will to try.
She tried hard to make it
But she just couldn't take it
She was doomed from the very start.
For she always did find
That the world was unkind
Anytime she followed her heart.
From the cradle she fell
Down a cold dark well.
And so she held onto the light
But she did not doubt
As she did climb out
But fell back in as she fled in the night.
And the angel is falling,
To Heaven she's calling
Without wings she cannot fly.
She can't trust herself
Or anyone else
For years she's been longing to die.
An angel without wings
Seldom will sing.
For who brings comfort at night?
She screams of her pain
To the storms and the rain
Wingless she cannot take flight.
Angel of Death
Take her last breath
Come and set her free.
Angel of Death
She's broken, bereft.
Give her peace in eternity
And the angel is falling
To Heaven she's calling,
Without wings she cannot fly.
She can't trust herself
Or anyone else
And she's lost her will to try.
