I've Lost my Halo

from Divided States by Monk Turner

77 times
Everything is fine
But if I add one more on top of that
It breaks your pious camel in half
You turn your back on me
Cause you’re just too blind to see
The punishment doesn’t fit the crime
And you’re not going to let it go this time

Oh no, I’ve lost my halo
Like an angel fallen out of heaven
Cursed and never to be forgiven, yeah

You make me less than dirt
And quote some stupid verse
Find a hallowed place to pray
And think your pain go away

Guess that’s just way it has to be

Oh no, I’ve lost my halo
Like an angel fallen out of heaven
Cursed and never to be forgiven

Guess that’s just way it has to be
You’ve always gotta have an enemy

You play all the hymns
On your tiny violin
But you cannot find a way to forgive me
I’ll never be redeemed unless I get down on my knees
So I guess I have to live with your goddamn label

Oh no, I’ve lost my halo
Like an angel fallen out of heaven
Cursed and never to be forgiven

Guess that’s just way it has to be
You’ve always gotta have an enemy

Oh no, I’ve lost my halo
Like an angel fallen out of heaven
Cursed and never to be forgiven, yeah
