Fallen angel

There she lies,
there she dies
that fallen angel,
fallen from the sky

A masquerade that was a pleasure to the beholder's eye,
with that beautiful facade that never cried
This was what her life had become,
and now she has come undone
There was never light from the sun,
and no love since she had none

Her heart was placed in an icicle,
hidden from the wounds of love - that painful cycle
Hidden in the shadow,
protected by the night;
the pictures on the wall talking to her,
the ghosts that never knew light

It was so long ago since she had known tears,
the truth is that it was far too many years
But no one had ever seen her,
and from these chains she had never been released;
she could have been saved,
her heart could have been eased
But sadly there was no savior,
no golden knight
Are they only fairy tales of a shining prince in the middle of the night?

But there she lies,
there the fallen angel dies
The real her was hidden by lies
