I prayed for you nightly while you slept tight
Thought you were heaven-sent, wings of white
How was I fooled, what did I see?
You wore black wings, lied straight to me
From the start, I sensed the game
You promised rare, but you're just the same
Empty words, you were never there
Left me broken, you didn't care
Cherubs, lay down your bows
This man ain't worth the lows
Told my cherubs to retire
Stop shooting arrows, he's a liar
Gave my all, but it's never enough
Drowning in this one-sided love
I prayed for angels, but none appear
Are they asleep, or did they disappear?
Cherubs, put away your arrows
This man's nothing but shadows
He wore his mask and played his role
But now I know, he's cold as coal
Cherubs, lay down your bows
This man ain't worth the lows
Told my cherubs to retire
Stop shooting arrows, he's a liar
From the start, I sensed the game
You promised rare, but you're just the same
Empty words, you were never there
Left me broken, you didn't care
Cherubs, lay down your bows
This man ain't worth the lows
Told my cherubs to retire
Stop shooting arrows, he's a liar
I prayed for you, thought you were divine
But your wings were black, no holy sign
You promised love, then disappeared
Left me alone with all my fears
You promised heaven, but brought me pain
I saw your halo, but it was just a chain
You tied it round, held me tight
If it ain't love, why hold me at night?
Cherubs, lay down your bows
This man ain't worth the lows
Told my cherubs to retire
Stop shooting arrows, he's a liar
Wings of lies, promises fake
I'm walking away, no more to take
