Bloody little wings
falling from the sky
torched clouds breaking down
a savior died before my eyes
tear drops from heaven fall
my baby dead, my lover lost
fog over a dusty mantle pall
sacrifices and lives cost
life at end things at stake
underneath earth's window i break
for you i fought and for you i bled
but now you lie still and coldly dead
i wish i could have seen your face
before you left this dismal place
i loved you then and even now
though i failed, i kept my vow
angels fail sometimes it's true
sadder still when they failed you
so on i linger and on i tread
i am still here and you are dead
