Angels With Broken Wings
Angels with broken wings, when was it that you forgot how to sing?
Your merry laughter used to ring off the walls and hang in the air.
Back then you felt as though love and acceptance would always be there.
You were so happy and your wings were strong and ready for flight.
Into the arms of life you went headlong.
But then suddenly that light faded and you began to see the world as callous and jaded.
Where did all your happiness and light and confidence fly to?
Where did that girl who was so full of life go to?
A girl who now sits alone and cries.
Angels with broken wings when will you remember how to sing?
Don't stop trying to live and survive, you have so much more life in store for you.
And more love to your world to give.
Don't let go, don't give up, there are people who love you more than you could ever know.
Broken wings now hanging limp at your feet, you can't see through the fog that has you blinded.
When once there was happiness, now there is pain and you run and hide and refuse to eat.
The girl that you see in your mirror has many flaws you know.
You see yourself getting thinner and weaker but you feel powerless to release yourself from your diseases claws.
Starvation is the key you think to being worthy of being loved.
But that path is only the road towards destruction.
Deep down you know that only devastation is what awaits you.
Angels with broken wings when will you be strong enough to again sing?
When was it that you stopped smiling and laughing?
And you forgot how to love yourself and all that you were meant to be?
You can't tell what is hurting you so, you can't say what is slowly killing you.
And your silence guarantees that you'll never be free.
Slowly dying in a self-made grave, you feel ignored and invisible in a world of unreachable love that you vainly crave.
Each night you go to bed you pray for strength, for hope and the ability to make it through one more day.
Spooky
