Fallen Angels
I slipped away from myself today
And somewhere deep I heard her say
That angels fall from heaven more each day
Plummeting from starry skies
Like so many satellites
We take a breath and falling, close our eyes
And I can't sleep at all tonight
Somewhere I know things just can't be right
But I've never seen these days in black and white
Slam the door and then run away
I'll never see your face again
For now I'll live with that -- or so I'll say
Fallen angels on the floor
No longer in search of something more
Now lost in a world that they will never control
I stare down at their dying lights
And with terrible sadness realize
That I can see a piece of me within their eyes
