Paper Wings

Your paper wings got ruined in the rain
Coat hanger halo got rusted
The lace fell off of the dress you made
You're the saddest little angel
Mascara left a sour taste
And I wish that I was there
When you took that fall
I'm too weak to pick you up
But i would've lay down
In this puddle beside you
Cos its all that I can do
I didn't have the heart to tell you
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
Like wild horses running scared
From a storm thats too much to bare
Its sad the things you used to fear
Don't seem so bad
They're not so bad
Don't let them scare you
And I pushed your bed to the window today
You're still not well enough
Turned your visitors away
I'll fight these tears by your bedside
How dare I let you see me cry
I didn't have the heart to tell you
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
Your wings were meant for this
This weather that no one gets
No calm before the storm
And its gone before the panic sets
So lets take our time with this
Bleach the mud from off your dress
You make such an innocent mess from all of this
And I wish that I was there
When you took that fall
I'm too weak to pick you up
But i wouldve lay down
In this puddle beside you
Cos its all that I can do
I didn't have the heart to tell you
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
