Darkest Angel
Twisted image skewed by fate
Stranger stares back eyes of hate
On blackened wings she makes her flight
Disappears no will in sight
Hides behind a wall of doubt
Wishes she could block it out
Scrubs herself so hard she bleeds
Cannot seem to ever get clean
Cold sweats come in steady waves
Checkout time is what she craves
Longs to break from desperate grip
Tries to climb but always slips
Purple haze of a memory
Badge of blame her enemy
Wears it tight around her neck
Weighs her down such a wreck
Unplugs the phone pulls the shades
Trades her pills for razor blades
Cold sweats come in steady waves
Checkout time is what she craves
Sees his shadow everywhere
Swallows hard to smother fear
On blackened wings she makes her flight
Darkest angel out of sight
