Accidental Angel
Make something out of nothing
Just to burn it all down.
Insert yourself into it just to pull out.
I want to stay inside it.
I want to cut the rope and let it all go.
But how can I plant it
When I just refuse to let it grow?
My accidental angel, you pulled me out of hell
Into the sky.
I changed the locks on my heart
Just to make you break in.
Divide the lies between us to share in the sin.
You saw that I was empty
So you climbed inside to color my walls.
But now that I've imploded
Here's the technicolor rubble of your love.
I stand naked by the fire and howl at the flames
While you calculate your numbers
In their Ponzi scheme.
We've grown so much together
That our fates our intertwined.
But will there come a day when
We have coiled so tight we begin to unwind?
