Broken Hearted Angels

Broken hearted angels gather together

Burned hearts and torn wings

Lift their hearts and sing

Agony’s melodies

Pour through pain covered eyes

Lost within the cruel disguise

s all the righteous walk away

Painted perfection stares down

He loved the least of things

Broken hearts burning to sing

Hands pierced

Bering the fallen

The ones left by the world to destroy

Lights pound

Hearts bleed

Screaming so loud

Yet unheard

As they reach above

Craving love

Why do we turn our souls

From the only thing

That can make all the broken breathe

Troubled through the night

Aching to gain light

If only those hands

Could mend what screams in forgotten lands

Believing what’s pounding inside

There are only two forces

Behind the soul --

Darkness and light

Watching the children raise their hearts

Offering all the care

Desperately seeking something real

To counteract all the pain they feel

How can the fallen reach the breaking
