I thought I was enough
That I could have been real
Do you not see me?
Am I ghost to you still?

Only you could make an icy heart look so beautiful
And you're the angel with the lying lips
Some princesses have dark secrets
But none as dark as this

Is this your art
To build my hope
Then smash it with steel
That's how it seems

Maybe your wings are white
Maybe mine are black
I don't know
That's just how it seems

Because if not, why do I repulse you?
Do you still pity me?
Am I still a poor fool
Clinging eternally?

Your eyes burn
And when they do, so does my heart
Hate me, and let me die
Kill me, and let my soul fly

Please, angel
Please, goddess
Please, Sapphire Eyes
Let me go'¦

Part 2: Chestnut Eyes
Don't look at me
I've spent too long in your eyes
Dreaming, of a future here with you
But now you're colder than ice
And I can't bear
To look into your eyes

Trust me, I wanted this as much as you
To be just an' me
But can't you see
Our fates are killing me
Our paths aren't crossing
Our future is tossed by the wind

It kills me when I see you bleed
Needlessly, with wounds you call forsaken
You're so wrapped up in your pain
That you can't even see me
What you see is a lie
I'd never hurt you

Your tears aren't unfounded
Your fears aren't without cause
But I wont leave you when trouble comes knocking
I've stood by you before
I'll do it again
Don't you know I can't live without you?

Don't give up, my champion
Don't surrender to sorrow
Keep your chin up, 'cause you're my everything
Don't give in, my angel
Don't let go
'Cause I won't let go of you
