"Broken Angel"

- something i wrote for a friend....

Watchin' the world go by
They're all spinning in circles
Chasin' images of a pretty, glossy lie
What drives you my friend?
What are you gonna do when all of this ends?
the thrill of the moment
his touch and kisses in the night
your reins over your lil universe

When the smoke clears
When you crash and burn
from this crazy ride
You walk out like a broken angel
Wings scorched from the fire

Why do you do the things you do?
What's it gonna take before you let Him in?
You wanna make up your own mind
Wanna go your own way
I see you treadin' on broken glass
You long for that which cuts
Like a drug, it reminds you you're alive

Don't try so hard to prove yourself strong
I know what you're all about
Let it go girl
Its ok to cry
Its ok to fall
Let Him rescue you from the edge
Its the beautiful letdown
You were made for so much more than this...
