You polished up the story Till the fingerprints were gone Left a little truth behind you Like the last of a settin' sun You smile like it was nothing I laugh because it was Some things don't need forgiving They just quit needing blood You can keep the cheap halo Hang it crooked on the wall I don't need the last word I already heard it all You can keep the cheap halo (OI!) Let it shine for someone new I got tired of carrying The version made for you Your apology came dressed up With nowhere left to go Every sentence had a doorway Every doorway had a show I watched your hands keep moving While your mouth cleaned up the scene Funny how a spotless answer Still leaves dirt beneath the seams You can keep the cheap halo (OI!) Hang it crooked on the wall I don't need the last word I already heard it all You can keep the cheap halo Let it shine for someone new I got tired of carrying The version made for you Some nights I almost miss it Not you Just the noise The little war behind the grin The part where I had a choice I finally used it You can keep the cheap halo (OI!) Hang it crooked on the wall I don't need the last word I already heard it all You can keep the cheap halo (OI!) Let it rust above the door I stopped feeding old ghosts They don't live here anymore Looks better on you anyway >─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─< © 2026 Govannon · Onath Lorn Audio Human-directed · AI-generated music Concept, lyric development, creative direction, editing, refinement, and final selection by Govannon Unauthorized copying, reproduction, re-uploading, redistribution, or commercial use is prohibited All rights reserved >─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─+─<
