A Perfect Smile And Broken Wings

I turned my eyes away from you

But when I looked back

Your smile was still there

Resting on broken wings

I'll carry you and the weight of our sins

Along with the demons on my back

On my back

Even though I stumble and fall

I'll live the lines of this book

This book

This book that never ends

Pick me up with bloody hands

I'd give it all for this

This wish

That love will last forever

You tilt your head to the starlit sky

With one word I cut us both

You tilt your head to the starlit sky

With one word I cut us both

Now this (we bleed and bleed)

You tilt your head to the starlit sky

With one word (the story never stops)

I continue to cut us both

Mascara running down your face (forever)

I'll wipe the tears from your eyes (and ever)

If three words could heal these wounds

Will three words heal these wounds

You tilt your head to the starlit sky

With one word I cut us both

You tilt your head to the starlit sky

With one word I cut us both

As we write new chapters to our story

I'll burn the pages that are your past

And as the wind stirs the ashes anew

Your new our new beginning

I turned my eyes away from you

But when I looked back

Your smile was still there

Resting on broken wings
