Unanswered questions, stories told between the lines
These hearts are breaking as we tip-toe through the mines
And are we strong enough to see through the lies
Well don't even try and dry your eyes
There'll be more tears tonight

Just say it's getting dark, I never cared much for the light
She gave up on me when I taught her to fly

And as her makeup runs just like the setting sun
These wings will turn to dust

And halos are heavy
And I'm tired of carrying mine
It's like you never see an angel
Til' it hits you between the eyes

And with the wings once mine she taught herself to fly
She gave up on me when she took to the sky
And are we strong enough to see through the lies
Well don't even try and dry your eyes
There'll be more tears tonight

And as her body drops there's something she forgot
Those wings will turn to dust

And halos are heavy
And I'm tired of carrying mine
It's like you never see an angel
Til' it hits you between the eyes

And halos are heavy
And I'm tired... of carrying mine.
