Half-Winged Angel by Ellis Delaney Lyrics

Lookin' for space I hold on to nothin' like it's gonna save me from losing my mind
And the promises I make are half-empty wishes like a full pot of water that's been boilin' a while
And I'm feelin' lost like a half-winged angel
That could be in heaven but can't fly so high
And I know this is common we all live the danger of realizin' we slept away most of our lives

Four-story window looks down onto Main Street where the people are rushin' to stop at the light
They are wrapped up in stories their eyes nevеr meet
Caught up in the day and how it is designed
And I opеn my heart to be more forgiving but I have some regrets that hurt from time to time
It hasn't been easy slowin' down momentum
I am in the habit of bein' unkind

I am awake after two cups of coffee
I put on the day like it's armor of steel
In the morning I am a warrior fightin' battles but the armor gets heavy and so does the shield
And I'm feelin' lost like a half-winged angel
That could be in heaven but can't fly so high
And I know this is common we all live the danger of realizin' we slept away most of our lives
And I'm feelin' lost like a half-winged angel
This heavy armor keeps me out of the sky
And I try to see it to let go of familiar and it's hard to trust that I will be alright
And will I be alright?
Will I be alright?
Oh-oh
