Not an Angel

I’m not an angel.

I’m not what you think

my wings aren’t white

and I don’t shine bright.

I’m not an angel,

I’m not what you think

why can't you see

the darkness is my light

I’m not an angel 

I’m not what you think

my friends are my enemy’s

and my enemy’s benight.

I’m not an angel 

I’m not what you think

you say to trust you

but that’s like my suicide.

I’m not an angel

I’m not what you think

I cower with fright

at the sight of my brave night.
