Verse 1: Mistakes happen, I lived them all They’re my sins to confess, or the fuel that helps me burn It’s the choices I make now, not after this life That decide if I’ll survive Or just be an echo lost into the night Even with this eternal light Burning in my soul It’s still not bright enough to light my way Pre-Chorus: So when will I ever let go Of these burdens that hold me so? Chorus: Oh angels, please, watch over me I’m so far away from finding my peace Oh dear God, bring me back to the softer side of me Don’t destroy my enemies ‘Cause the only enemy is me Verse 2: Myself and I, just too young to die It took so long to realize Nothing’s really lost It’s just me against the world And the drugs are where I put the blame For all that’s wrong in my life But you’re still the only thing that’s right Pre-Chorus: To change is hard, not to change is fatal But we all need to struggle to be able to fly Chorus: Oh angels, please, watch over me I’m so far away from finding my peace Oh dear God, bring me back to the softer side of me Don’t destroy my enemies ‘Cause the only enemy is me Bridge: So give me my wings to soar through this life But for now, I’m so low, I can’t reach the sky Too far away for God to hear my cries I’m not ready to go Chorus: Oh angels, please, watch over me I’m so far away from finding my peace Oh dear God, bring me back to the softer side of me Don’t destroy my enemies ‘Cause the only enemy is me Outro: As long as I have you, I still have hope And this is my promise, to change for you
