• You came when I was at my worst
    Tired of living in a world so rehearsed
    Just waiting for the final curtain call
    Then into my life, you happened to fall

    Innocent eyes saw through my mask
    Your pure love, I didn’t have to ask
    You knew what I wanted and you weren’t afraid
    But there are still secrets I will take to the grave

    You’re an angel playing with the devil, baby
    Don’t risk your wings to try and save me
    Sooner or later will come the day
    When you won’t be able to fly away

    You brought me up to new found highs
    Feeling like I could tame the skies
    And as I rose, you braved the descent
    To rescue yourself, you made no attempt

    But as demons from inside me awoke
    You wept silently, trying to revoke
    Child-like motions were defined
    As deadly sins in my tainted mind

    You’re an angel playing with the devil, baby
    Don’t risk your wings to try and save me
    Sooner or later will come the day
    When you won’t be able to fly away

    Your halo is cracked and tarnished now
    Hanging low upon your brow
    Once white wings, now crumpled and torn
    Your cherub face distorted and forlorn

    You were an angel who played with the devil, baby
    You risked your wings to try and save me
    Sooner than later came the day
    When you weren’t able to fly away
