wings

pluck the feathers from her wings

did she soar too high

lost all control

when altitude she strives more

it's passing youth she's dying for

she'd sever every helping hand

says i'm too strong to take this threat

i've buried myself in past failures

never again my angel

never again will wounds be left opened

never again my angel

never again will you fall from heaven

so run away

you're good at that

heart wrapped in thorns

so reclusive

and stowaway to places that bear no name

and i swear they'll never find you/independent

walk casual

a veil disguising your appeal

a veil depriving all who's real

once it is shed

air becomes thin

you suffocate then you 

collapse

grasping all you thought you had

she'd sever every helping hand

says i'm too strong to take this threat

i've buried myself in past failures

dear star, come down

be healed

you're broken
