"Halo" lyrics

"Halo"

I am the prodigal son
Oh my God
I am the prodigal son
I can't trust myself or anyone

I feel it in my bones
The weight of my mistakes
I wanna cleanse my soul
You'll burn me at the stake
And I wouldn't blame you

I've been through the worst of it
I feel the devil creeping in
In dire need of salvation
I'm reaching out to God again

I know my halo fades away
When I'm giving in into temptation
In hopes to not feel anything
I know all halos fade away
When we're giving in into temptation
In hopes that we can numb the pain

I'm so lost
What am I searching for?
I need to stop setting myself up for failure

Every day feels like I'm on borrowed time
How can I see the light?
When I'm walking blind
Regain my virtues

I've been through the worst of it
I feel the devil creeping in
In dire need of salvation
I'm reaching out to God again

I know my halo fades away
When I'm giving in into temptation
In hopes to not feel anything
I know all halos fade away
When we're giving in into temptation
In hopes that we can numb the pain

Hiding in the shadows
Tie the noose
Hang me from the gallows
End the abuse
Hiding in the shadows
Tie the noose
Hang me from the gallows
End the abuse

I know my halo fades away
When I'm giving in to temptation
In hopes to not feel anything
I know all halos fade away
When we're giving in to temptation
In hopes that we can numb the pain
