desperately hanging
from my crooked halo
way too low to reach up
way too high to just let go

hanging from my halo
desperate fingers clutch
hanging from my halo
my sweaty fingers slip

gasp for breath i strain
but these tattered wings won't lift me up
gasp for breath i fall
but drag you down with me i will

look up at my halo
desperate for you
look up at my halo
so desperate for you

from down here
from down here i can see you
from down here
from down here i can see you

~

from down here i can see you
see you grinning so wide
from down here i can see you
i can see and you can't hide

gasp for breath i strain
but these tattered wings won't lift me up
gasp for breath i will
tear them off myself i will

gasp for breath i strain
and this time i will reach you dear
gasp for breath i will
and hang you from my crooked halo

hang you
hang you from my halo
hang you
hang you from my halo
