A Halo in the Dirt Lyrics

You never gave yourself away
I promise that your secret's safe
And I believe that no one else could understand
All about it
Feel the movement of your eyes
Down the corners of my mind
Could you leave me with some dignity and grace
Think about it

And I wanted you to go
With the silence you control
You can leave me like a halo in the dirt

Just a little 'til you stop
Slip the poison in my cup
You say fallen angels do just as they please
Don't cry about it

But it's Jezebel tonight
Turning music into fire
A fading melody like ashes in the breeze
So sing about it
And I wanted you to go
With the silence you control
And you can leave me like a halo in the dirt

You used to need be to be strong
You used to tell me we belong
In the story book you were writing in your head

Oh but you get down and I get down
And you get down and I get down
The autumn leaves have left their trees
And the story's come undone
So sing about it
Don't leave me on the side
Don't crucify my mind
Don't just add it up to see what it's all worth and tell me 'bout it

And I wanted you to go
With the silence you control
You can leave me like a halo in the dirt
A halo in the dirt
