Broken Halos
Humming sweet lullabies, you might never know
Beneath those kind and darlings eyes. It never shows
A helping hand, and an understanding grin
Who are you to believe this being carries sin

She's brings warmth and joy with her presence
You'll never hear her curse or swear out of impatience
You'd be be surprised at the stories caved into skin
Her sanity that has stretched to be paper thin

Beyond her is a shadow, a trail of corruption
A smile that leads poor souls to destruction
Onlookers crave a single simple gaze
Her acting the saint is a sight to amaze

Once an angel high above, God's precious child
Curiosity whispered and she follow it into the wild
A seeker of excitement now, she play to hearts content
Would you truly believe she's not heaven sent?

An angel with her broken halo, dancing to her own tune
Actress of the year, it seems no one is immune
Humming those lullabies, showing kind and darling eyes
She a temptress whos story lies behind broken tides
