Lyrics
VERSE ONE what's a face on a page but a soul you can't touch? and in this day and age how much is too much? what's a word of hate but a gun in hand? and is it too late to do all i've planned? just how strong are an angel's wings? can a song really save he who sings? CHORUS do you still walk those halls? i see your face, my heart calls who knew? the devil! afraid of your flame oh, i'm just a pawn in this pointless game two bullets is quite the burden to carry whoa, don't leave this light on me oh, larry VERSE TWO does love really pose such a threat to cause such fear? if you give a man a rose will he give you a spear? darling was it your valentine who thought it sin for your light to shine? BRIDGE did fifteen years flash before your eyes? and when the dust clears will there be sunny skies? SECOND CHORUS from that side, can you hold these walls? i see your face, and my heavy heart falls who knew? the devil! afraid of your flame oh, did you know his fear would be your fame? a body is quite the burden to carry this spotlight burns too bright on me oh, larry
