Angel at War

Precious seconds turn to stone as the minutes come and go
And the hours and days become years
You lit up my soul my reason to push on
My reason to face all my fears

And I remember so your little face wrapped in my arms
Your eyes that said we got this
Said I'd never let you go
But I was only 21 shouldn't matter but I think it did

You been missing from this space
Maybe I let you down one too many times and lost your faith

I feel empty in my soul when I think of you alone
So many times so far away
Consumed by what I thought was the answer to it all
But my answer pushed you further away

Thought you'd undеrstand see that I should be the man
Collect thе pieces rebuild a nest
But the answer was simple like it always was before
I should of just held you chest to chest

You been missing from this space
Maybe I let you down one too many times and lost your faith

The angels at was in my mind tell me where I went wrong
The angels at war in my heart keep me guessing wanting more
The angels at war in brain say there's nothing more I could have done
Maybe I been an angel at war with myself now for too long

Said I'd never let you go
But I was only 21 shouldn't matter but I think it did
