The fantasy of love is appealing, but sometimes you realize it's only an image.
Sanity has come and gone
Wonder why it took so long
And once again my heart is on the floor

I don’t mind a little change
But now my life’s been rearranged
And I forgot just what I’m fighting for

Thought we could have had it all
Then you let me take the fall
Fluttering on bound and broken wings

Your halo needs a quick spit-shine
Guess that’s why you’d stolen mine
This angel’s forgotten how to sing

And I
Can’t be your baby anymore
And you
Just turn your back and walk away
And we
Aren’t picture-perfect anymore
And I

Guess I’m no one’s angel after all

Tried to be the best for you
Everything you wanted to
Blinded to the end you clearly see

Devil with a smooth beguile
Hiding in your diamond smile
Everyone could tell except for me

And I
Can’t find the nerve to walk away
And we
Aren’t much of anything at all
And you
Will never stop the games you play
And I

Guess I’m no one’s angel after all

I have to say I’m no one’s angel after all

As it says in my profile, I thrive on honest, constructive criticism! Positive comments are always appreciated, of course, *Smile* but knowing what *didn't* work for a reader is what really lets me improve as a writer. If your words are polite and well-meant, I promise not to take offense! ;-D
