Hand me back my halo
Repair each broken wing
Redeem the graceful words
This angel longs to sing
Uncry the tears I've cried
Brighten my sky from grey
Put some hope beneath my wings
And I'll gladly fly away
Unstitch the smile I've sown
Make a face of pure perfection
A gentle mind and thoughts
With joy in each reflection
No burning crimson tides
No craving for the knife
No voices cursing silently
'A pathetic worthless life'
Reason my existence
A reason just for me
I'm searching with blind eyes
That's why I just can't see
The light too far to reach
Temptation way too strong
This angel's falling slowly
But I know I'm often wrong
So regenerate my faith
Put sight behind each eye
Mend this broken angel
And gracefully I'll fly
