Always My Angel
Always My Angel
Sort of like the way you never said goodbye
Walking across the burning bridges
I'm a voice without a word
Falling across false realities
Nobody told me how difficult life would be
And there is always another obstacle
It doesn't help that I play with fire
Running my lips across your skin
While you smoke pot
Dying in a grave of your own creation
Guys walk your bridges
Taking advantage of open tunnels
I was never the only one here
Sometimes it's better to let it hurt
Because it could always be so much worse
Summer would never come for you
When it never came for me
Your eyes attract the flies
Stickiness makes your hair clump together
I stroke your cheek so tenderly
The blood isn't mine
But it isn't yours either
It's the blood of innocence
And that's what I gave to you all my life
Melting in waterfalls of fire
You've been taken by the demons
But you were always my angel
