Angel

The velvet curtains of the night gave way. A streak of silver in the light of day. I left the silence of the spheres behind. To seek the treasures that the mortals find. No wings of gold. Just shadows in the mist. A promise made. A secret yet unkissed. Oh, I fell from the velvet heights. Trading the stars for a neon light. My halo fades in the city rain. Falling in love with the human pain. Down to the earth, Where the embers glow. To walk the paths that I used to know. The asphalt echoes underneath my feet. The bitter rhythm of the crowded street. I touch the faces, cold and lined with care. And breathe the smoke that heavy spirits bear. I traded heaven for a grain of sand. To feel the touch of your trembling hand. Gravity pulls at my weary soul. A broken vessel seeking to be whole. If I can't fly back to the azure sky. Then I'll stay here until the day I die. Because a heartbeat-Is worth more than space. When I can look into your fragile face. Oh, I fell from the velvet heights. Trading the stars for a neon light. My halo fades in the city rain. Falling in love with the human pain. Down to the earth, Where the embers glow. To walk the paths-That I used to know. No wings left now. Just heavy breath. A choice between the sky And life and Death. I'm grounded here, Beneath the moon's soft beam. Caught in the beauty of your mortal dream. Caught in the dream. I'm here to stay. I'm here to stay.
