Face of an Angel

looking for the answer

to get you through the day

looking for forgiveness

for the games you've played

never new the reason

for doing what you've done

honesty betrays you

& the truth is overrun

how can you lie into the face of an angel?

& now you're hiding all the cards on the table

how can you look in those eyes?

& never realize

you're going down, down, down

i guess the world is going down

feeling like a stranger

left you so alone

still not out of danger

stories have been told

there's no use denying

you should take the blame

all these years of lying

will she ever be the same?

just woke up

from my dream i heard her cry

i heard her scream

does she have to suffer?

to make you understand

there can be no other

& that's the way she stands

take a good hard look

before you walk away

what a chance you took

now she's gone, gone, gone

now she's gone, gone, gone

got you on your knees
