Angel

13. angel
Let the night be gone
let it go without a sound
i have seen you twice before
nothing by chance you said
 
i've heard it can be seen
in the places in between
where the meek are said to seem
to be a part of it
 
you said everyone cries
you said everyone flies
and the joy i keep bound
like a secret i hide
from the spirits that move
in the time that i bide
but it hurts sometimes
 
float me past the night
show me all the currents right
leaning on a subtle light
that brings one back again
 
you said everyone cries
you said everyone flies
and the joy i keep bound
like a secret i hide
from the spirits that move
in the time that i bide
but it hurts sometimes
 
when i dream it's never dark
when the moon is swirling through my head
do you come to watch me too
do you think of me as a part of you
heart of you, start of you
 
will this last that long
though i know it can't be wrong
you repeat you're not that strong
but that's what angels do
 
you said everyone cries
you said everyone flies
and the joy i keep bound
like a secret i hide
from the spirits that move
in the time that i bide
 
did you know you could fly
when you opened your eyes
does a miracle start
even though no one tries
after all of this time
after all it's just fine
but it hurts sometimes
