intro
I shot an angel with my father's rifle
I should've set it free but I- (our Father)
I shot an angel with my (hallowed be thy Name)
Father's rifle (Thy Kingdom come)
I should've set it free but I-
verse
Hush little angel, don't say a word
Bottle full of pills, passed out on the curb
Sun brings heat and it just won't snow
Noose like a necklace on my neck, won't go
I was too disloyal 'cause I won't understand
Blade for your cries, count a penny for my sins
Water flies off, and the lake don't stream
Wrist down the river, not across, wanna bleed
chorus
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay
verse
I'm straight-forward, fuck a pace
What I wanted just so happened to be you
Couldn't picture being a moment in your shoes
When I think back to the kidney failures
I won't deny it, I hailed the ground you walk on, yeah
verse
Heart stops, you walk away
You're good today, you're gone tomorrow
I carry my heart on my face, I'm so depressed
I pray that you would love me less
And now it's here, hand on my chest
chorus
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay
Grow your wings, fly away, fly away, fly away
You don't wanna stay, wanna stay, wanna stay
