Better Angels

Tell me again you're sick of it Tell me again you're scared of it all You know it's not the height You're just terrified to fall Convince yourself you're over it Convince yourself it's curtain call Don't try to pull away You can't run before you crawl If you break before me I swear that I will take the weight Of your pain and worry I'll bring the light back to you So lay down Bury the lies they won't disguise Our flaws and regrets We're not so perfect Told yourself you can't go back You told yourself you can't go home There's nothing in the dark You're just scared to be alone Promise me you're done with this Promise me you're done with this game Let go of the chains you hold And the rest will fall away If you break before me I swear that I will take the weight Of your pain and worry I'll bring the light back to you So lay down Bury the lies they won't disguise Our flaws and regrets We're not so perfect We lose sight sometimes of what we are Dragged down by heavy head and heart The inner wars we wage The subtle loss in faith It's a cage Unlock the cage If you break before me I swear that I will take the weight Of your pain and worry I'll bring the light back to you So lay down Bury the lies they won't disguise Our flaws and regrets We're not so perfect Perfect!
