Your paper wings got ruined in the rain
Coat hanger halo got rusted
The lace fell off of the dress you made
You're the saddest little angel
Mascara left a sour tasteAnd I wish that I was there
When you took that fall
I'm too weak to pick you up
But I would have lay downIn this puddle beside you
'Cause it's all that I can do
I didn't have the heart to tell you
It's really bad, it's really bad this timeLike wild horses running scared
From a storm that's too much to bare
It's sad, the things you used to fear
Don't seem so bad, they're not so bad
Don't let them scare youI pushed your bed to the window today
You're still not well enough
Turned visitors awayI fight these tears by your beside
How dare I let you see me cry
I didn't have the heart to tell you
It's really bad, it's really bad this timeYour wings weren't meant for this
This weather that no one guessed
No calm before the storm
And it's gone before the panic sets
So let's take our time with this
Bleach the mud from off your dress
You much such an innocent mess of all of thisAnd I wish that I was there
When you took that fall
I'm too weak to pick you up
But I would have lay downIn this puddle beside you
'Cause it's all that I can do
I didn't have the heart to tell you
It's really bad, it's really bad this time
