Verse 1
I'm not the angel I use to be.
When you're gone side-effects are clear to see.
Lately, my prescriptions the only scripture I read.
Some angels must rent their wings.
Chorus 1
Cause what goes up must come down.
I lose my wings when I touch the ground.
God calls angels home when it's time.
And there's never enough time to say goodbye.
But low lifes know where to get high.
And some angels must rent their wings to fly.

Verse 2
I'm only safe from falling when I'm high.
Medicine takes my mind off the whys.
But gravity brings me down in time.
We said forever, but you're leaving me behind.
Chorus 2
Cause what goes up must come down.
I lose my wings when I touch the ground.
God calls angels home when it's time.
And there's never enough time to say goodbye.
But low lifes know where to get high.
And some angels must rent their wings to fly.
Verse 3
This is me giving you your flowers, while you can still smell them.
Cause one day, I may have to lay them.
So if you're called home before me,
I just wanted you to know these things.
Cause there's never enough time to say goodbye.
So I'm saying this before God says its time.

Chorus 3
I don't need medicine when you're with me.
I don't need prescriptions to give me wings.
Your side effects are clear to see.
And we're no angels, but we're all we need.
Every hello ends in goodbye.
But I'll love you beyond the day you die.
You don't need wings to fly.
When God calls you home, I'll give you mine.
