angels never cry
staying dumb within their wings
vacant in the light
hollow melting wax
devils shit at my feet
in sweaters like toy dogs
they dodge all of my my kicks
and laughing they remain alive
thunder on the overpass
knowing these feelings will pass
i won't fall tonight
three girls follow me
holding a ball of twine
two want to string me up
one wants to cut me down
waste from above anoints me
caresses my smiling mouth and
flows into my wide eyes
reminding me that i'm still alive
freedom when the power fails
watching you all disappear
i won't fall tonight
i will fly tonight
