 Struggling with My Halo? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

My will to survive is what makes me so nervous
And makes me such a burdensome friend
Everybody keeps on talking about "Live for the moment"
But, oh, every moment ends.

When I first came to the city I was already jaded
I was all ready to believe
That all my best choices were already made
And just fading away from me

But I'm a long way from my halo.
I'm a long way from my home
In the host of golden angels
And I will not be for long

I boiled it all down for my friend at a wedding
Where I drank so much I burned my thumb
He just laughed and he handed me a drink and a smoke
And he said, "Wait till your baby comes."

'Cause you're a long way from your halo
You're a long way from your home
In the host of golden angels
But you will not be for long

And who will you love, who will you trust when you must
Who will you hold on to
And what do you see in your dreams of the future
What do you believe?


My will to survive is what makes me so nervous
And makes me such a burdensome friend
Everybody keeps on talking about "Live for the moment"
But, oh, every moment ends.

And I'm a long way from my halo.
I'm a long way from my home
In the host of golden angels
In the dust of days remembered
On a pullout couch in God's Great Big House
But I will not be for long
