I can see you shining
like an angel in the dark
But I can tell you're hiding
from the eyes of your accusers
Your massive well of gravity
could swallow up a star
I wish you'd notice me
most beautiful of all abusers
I could show you things
Both terrible and lovely
Things I know that you would understand
Just open up your wings
And hover right above me
Your feet are far too precious for the land
You struck me like lightning
when your light consumed my eyes
Like heaven's glow was blinding
to protect my fragile sanity
So here I am defenseless
as you strip away my pride
But you need no forgiveness
for my self inflicted vanity
You could show me things
Both beautiful and ugly
Things to drive my memories away
Just open up your wings
And hover right above me
In my dark your halo burns the way
This raging storm of fire
you've ignited in my soul
It can take me high enough
to see that I'm a loser
This painful new perspective
showed me how to become whole
Though it wasn't your objective
you have my thanks my abuser
