Gabriel

You only asked to spread your wings
I was a fool, I bought a ring
The omens follow me around
Ask me things like why and how
And what now, what now?

All your excuses land as weak as a motel coffee
I burn, I burn, I burn for you
Oh, Gabriel
What did you come here to say to me?
Come on and tell me what to do
What do I do?

Was it me that flew too high?
Left you breathless in the brine
I didn't mean to drag you down
Both of us are drowning now
I'm drowning now, I'm drowning now

All my excuses land as weak as a motel coffee
I burn, I burn, I burn for you
Oh, Gabriel
What did you come here to say to me?
Come on and tell me what to do
I burn for you

Maybe there was no chosen one
Just more bad information
But if you are the messenger
Consider it done, consider it sung, consider it over
I guard the phone like a sentry pacing his post
But the morning never comes, the sun doesn't come up

All our excuses land as weak as a motel coffee
Oh, and I've heard them all before
Archangel
What did you come here to say to me?
I'll burn, I'll burn, I think I'll burn
I'll burn a little more

You only asked to spread your wings
I was a fool, I didn't think
