The secret angel fell from grace Condemned to wear a human face Evicted from her paradise Excommunicated twice Settled for second best And so she found me Don't ask the nature of her crime Don't ask her why she's serving time Don't ask this girl why she can't cry Don't ask her questions that start "why" I'm trying to help her start anew To learn to walk when once she flew Above the ups and downs
That floor and ground us Into the dark, she was reborn She says tonight will have no dawn And all the light drains from her eyes As she forgets to say goodbye To one more memory That tries to lift her high She drafts new plans and draws designs To find a way for her to fly I hide them when her back is turned The secret angel never learns She just gets burned again And falls eternally....
