Gone With Angels

Closest to me she must be a good child?

Don't ignore the signs, that's right

You be her teacher, taking



Shivering, she awakes in the cold sweat

Terrified so she speaks under her breathe

Makes a fake cry for help, she's a real mess

That's the sign of the stress, ma, listen to her



Heartbeats working overtime in her chest

Scared stiff from approaching footsteps

Ignoring the stains on her torn dress

Come now ma, listen to her



How could you put your own child in danger?

And turn around and take the words of a stranger

You didn't wanna face the facts so you blamed her

Too late ma, you should have listened to her



Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace

With the angels

Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace

With the angels



She's fading like a delicate flower

Try to wash away the shame in the shower

Defending him left her feeling overpowered

You were wrong ma, you didn't listen to her



It was there in the words of the letter

Had you read it maybe things would be better

You let her down and I won't let you forget her

Save ya tears ma, you should have listened to her



How could you put your own child in danger?

And turn around and take the words of a stranger

You didn't wanna face the facts so you blamed her

Save ya tears ma, you didn't listen to her



Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace

With the angels

Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace

With the angels



Why day, why day

Why day, why day



Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace

With the angels

Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace

With the angels



Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace

With the angels

Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace

With the angels



Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace

With the angels

Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace

With the angels



Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace

With the angels

Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace

With the angels
