Broken Angel Songtext / Lyric

So small and yet still so proud

At night before he dreams, he looks into the clouds

A high flyer's what I want to be

Seems they won't let me, says I'm too small

I don't feel small at all



Break my dreams, that's what they'll do

Well I'm going to run away and learn to fly like you

I'm going to go so high and swoop so low

You can't bring me down

Going be so proud



Little angel, you've got to learn to fly

Get up and earn your wings tonight

Little angel, just look in my eyes

Get up and earn your wings tonight






Push and shove, then climb aboard

This is the shuttle train to the top of the world

When you look around what do you see?

These are all high flyers

But none of these high flyers look like me



What is that supposed to mean?

What am I supposed to be?



I pull my way up through this crowd

To find your body crushed on the ground

It's so obvious

Why couldn't you see?

That you can't go high flying

Without a pair of high-flyer wings



Little one's broken lying on the ground

Trying to get up 'till his last breath out

Wings are strewn everywhere, there's blood all around

'Cause even angels die, but that light just fades

It's so sad, but he'd be so proud



Broken angel, you've got to learn to fly

Get up and earn your wings tonight

Broken angel, just look in my eyes

Get up and earn your wings tonight

Get up and earn your wings

Earn your wings tonight
