ANGEL

I met an angel back in the city
She was pretty strong
Our eyes met, memories flood
Flashback loud music in a club
Bitter taste in my mouth
Smokes to infinity
Drunken bike rides
And strong winds
Broken bones
Shit happens
Pictures and videos
Phone numbers and payphones
Pagers and voicemails
Damn
I miss your voice
Wish I could hold you close
Wish I could hold you close

On my computer screen
I saw an angel dance
She was everyone we lost, all at once
I felt it through her glance
Didn’t need to ask why
I witnessеd her silence bе
With each exhale
I broke down closer
And she said

Dance With Me
Ooooh
Dance With me
Dance With me

Dance With Me
Ooooh
Dance With me
Dance With me

Took the escalator
To meet my faith
I was in a useless place
When I saw her time stopped
Paused
Rewound
Old wounds and ghosts
Old rooms at most
It all came back
Stomping on the stairs
Hiding in the bath
Being bad at math
Smoking for the first time
Coughing
Feeling so bad and so good
Being young
Being free
Being afraid
Being me

On my computer screen
I saw an angel dance
She was everyone we lost, all at once
I felt it through her glance
Didn’t need to ask why
I witnessed her silence be
With each exhale
I broke down closer
And she said

Dance With Me
Ooooh
Dance With me
Dance With me

Dance With Me
Ooooh
Dance With me
Dance With me

Orange paint that I chip away in the dark
Moon light’s my room up like I live in a park
When the floor cracks I forget I’m alive
Everything seems much worse when you’re nine
Put the music loud to drown out the fear
When you think you might be good in the clear
Wanna to see your friends but you’re not allowed out
Of your house and all he does is shout

Finish your plate
Don’t be late
Heeeey
Go to your room
Finish your plate
Don’t be late
Heeeey
Then my computer goes

Dance With Me
Ooooh
Dance With me
Dance With me

Dance With Me
Ooooh
Dance With me
Dance With me

On my computer screen
I saw an angel dance
She was everyone we lost, all at once
I felt it through her glance
Didn’t need to ask why
I witnessed her silence be
With each exhale
I broke down closer
And she said
