lyrics

We worship false idols
why worship anything at all
I'm sorry, sweetheart
but you met me too
late
just be at peace
I
don't hate
maybe after all this is over
we can really see the world

We don't smile
that's a lie
I smile a lot
and I'm not sorry, sweetheart
for being too polite
did you know
this could be
not just any other night
not just any other night

and blue eyes
they become an angel
even if the eyes aren't real
and flowers are lovely
how obvious of me
but sometimes you just have to say how you feel

We walk on cliff edges
every single day
inside our heads
and that little voice says jump
but we don't jump
I don't jump
I push you over
and then you spread you wings

Oh no, you just turned into an angel
Oh no, you just turned into an angel
Oh no, you just turned into an angel
Oh no, you just turned into an angel…

and blue eyes
they become an angel
even if the eyes aren't real
and flowers are lovely
how obvious of me
but sometimes
you just have to say how you feel
and the way you stare me down
while I'm
playing you a song
well that's alright
it's actually what I like
and you're so far above me
you're so fucking lovely
yeah you're so far above me
but I might just pretend you aren't!
and continue
to fight
for your love

Oh no, you just turned into an angel...
Oh no, you just turned into an angel!
