With your power
You granted me anything
Anything I wished for.

You gave me a heart of solid gold
When I longed to be a better person.
I loved you for what you did for me.

You gave me your embrace
When I longed to be with you forever.
I loved that you were committed to me.

You gave me the wings of an angel
When I longed to fly higher than anyone else.
But my arrogance soon became my demise.

One day, you weren't there to catch me.

When you weren't there,
I flew up into space, through the clouds,
higher than anyone else had ever been.

When I lost control, I started to fall
my heavy golden heart dragging me
through the clouds back to Earth.

Your embrace was useless,
You weren't there to catch me,
and my arrogance won't let me love you again.
Written originally about guilt... changed it to arrogance... hope it still works.
