I’ve heard the angels can fake it
they say they’re watching but sometimes they slip up
whatever happened to our memories
we were wishing, we were dreaming
leaving our lives don’t feel much like sleeping
and i wish we all could fly
did you see the mothers in the world weeping
and the children wondering why lives weren’t for keeping
i said a prayer for someone to guide you
away from your fears
i hope the lights in the lighthouse were leading
whoever chose our time could be taken
or that wishes on stars were all just wasted
