Your City of Angels

I should have listened to myself
But instead I took your word…
I kiss the stars goodnight
As I say goodbye to this life
Falling through this burning city
As I walk on the blackest ashes
Of all my hope and love

And when you said, “I’ll be there.”
I really thought you meant it
Let me go into this world
The one you created with your thoughts
Never should have followed you
You have gotten me so lost

And I never meant to hurt you in any way I did
I wonder how it felt
To be you always hiding
Running again from your problems
I failed to even hold you

And when you said, “I’ll be there.”
I really thought you meant it
Let me go into this world
The one you created with your thoughts
Never should have followed you
You have gotten me so lost

And the embers of the broken fire
Quickly die upon us
Never did I mean you harm
Never meant to cause you pain
Never wanted to break your smile
I never want to live again

And when you said, “I’ll be there.”
I really thought you meant it
Let me go into this world
The one you created with your thoughts
Never should have followed you
You have gotten me so lost…
