fallen angel

so many little problems

fill the spaces in my brain

I'm filled with rage and anger

all I do is complain

so when I have a peaceful moment

I tend to hold it close

because somehow I don't trust it

it may be a lethal dose

so I am left to worry

about everything and more

the headlines and the deadlines

wolves waiting at my door

if I could accept the quiet

I would settle down and rest

but then I wouldn't have myself

to scold and second guess

          give me a minute

          to look around and see

          there's a fallen angel

          and he lives inside of me

there are many ways to burden

your heart in times like these

love is just a memory

and fear is a disease

so I will keep on moving

for someday I will find

all signs of hope and kindness

that I have left behind

          give me a minute

          to look around and see

          there's a fallen angel

          and he lives inside of me
