archangel choir

there is a certain darkness to these things, the people that take before they learn what comes with time.

i have been pulled by the strings of the selfish, a victim of my own innocence.

man conquers, but he does not give back.

who starts a fire just to let it go out?

i want to hear you go inside yourself, empty halls that echo a driving madness.

a destructive force that you never cared to master,

i wouldn’t want to be like you.

there’s moonlight in her eyes.

her floating’s coming to an end.

she takes a step to leave romanticism,

but it always pulls her back in.

is it yes or is it no,

so many things to so many people.

a life like her’s is hard to find,

a brave girl living her truth, amongst the blind.

angels in santa monica, calmness in the storm.

wild and dancing free, winter sand between our feet.

run away, i will understand.

keep the evenings long, i’m here to heal.

some days it’s hard not shine.
