aren't you angel?

I'd clip your wings
with hedge trimmers
and throw your halo back to the ground
if that meant you'd stay with me
stay grounded
stay clear
aren't you angel?
aren't you angel dear?
I'll get damned before
I'd
set you free
and it's not that i'd take anyone,
it's that you have the darkest brown
eyes and
i can't stop thinking of winter
and the sound of snow as i walk
the forty-two blocks
in nothing but flip flops
boxers & a tank top
so please let me lay here a while
and let the melancholy flow
and i'll be better soon
i forgot;
aren't you angel?
aren't you angel dear?
and those lines keep on moving
when i close my eyes
and all i can see are the fireworks
exploding on the back of my eyelids
and i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry.
and i swore i'd never write a line of love
but that's all i have left.
please take this burden from me.
