The Debt of the Angels
I believe that everyone is a fallen angel
In one way or another
Sent out of the sky
Given life on Earth to repent
For their crimes in heaven
Some are so good on Earth you wonder why they were ever sent out
But others
Others know exactly what they did.
But most people are in the middle
And I believe that the very good and bad ones are the lucky ones
Because at least they know if they’ll go home to heaven in the end
Angels in the middle wake up at night
Wondering if they’ll ever be forgiven for their last fight
Beauty comes from the inside
On the inside, there is a flawed duality
Sin is bad, yet in order to be truly good we can’t be clean of it
Beauty comes at a price
And it haunts every fallen angel on Earth
And it’s the reason behind most kindness
Why you are called “sir” and “ma’am”
Why you say “please” and thank you”
But those who aren’t motivated by dread and heaven
Those who act kind purely because of their hearts
Why, you wonder why they were sent out of heaven in the first place
