Verse 1:
Sunken eyed best
friend of mine
Why do you sit so
still still shaking?
Superhero sapped
of all powers
I'll kneel beside you
watch you for hours
Chorus 1:
There's an angel on you
leaning down to
kiss your cheek
Feathers floating on air
This is my prayer for you
Verse 2:
Steps of stone
morning bright blue
Stick of flame
a candle winks at you
In the pew head
down I'm crying
I think you have
thoughts of dying
Chorus 2:
I'm eclipsing them now
Calling all allies down
I'm consumed by your eyes
Keep them open and full
Bridge:
It's raining in your room
Angel tears bask sweet
Angel eyes on you
They love all that they see
Verse 3:
Dewy palm cemetery
lawn Walk alone in
gardens of loss
You can't have a
flower of stone
Never let this soil
come between us
Chorus 3:
I'm asking you on a date
for the rest of your life
I'm asking you on a date
for the rest of your life
(Repeat Bridge)
Outro: F--A-- x3, F--D----
D-- x16, D(hold)
