long way down

lyrics by: Joanne Mayhem
Written on Aug 15, 2017

one day, an angel
fell down from heaven
landed on earth
with no more than his violin
his wings taken away
mankind was his new brother
and his arch enemy
all the same

he dreamt of charity, hope and prosperity
all dreams created by his fantasy
in dark times he arrived
it was a long way
to go down from the heavens
he had a long way to go down

one day he felt
the hate of the people
all that they took
was more than he could give
his life was all they left him
disregarding the angel
they were the same as ever
every day

he dreamt of charity, hope and prosperity
all dreams created by his fantasy
in dark times he arrived
it was a long way
to go down from the heavens
he had a long way to go down

deep inside he always knew
he was an angel after all
when worlds collided and days were dark
he found a way to be a superstar

*violin solo*

he dreamt of charity, hope and prosperity
all dreams created by his fantasy
in dark times he arrived
it was a long way
to go down from the heavens
he had a long way to go down

he had a long way to go down
