I Don't Wear a Halo



This song says everything I want to say.  This goes out to all you people who expect a lot from others, treat them as saints, look up to them and then gets disappointed when they fall short of your demands and expectations.  I love Bethany Joy Galeotti, her songs are brave, they make sense and they speak the truth about human attitude. Haha!

Halo
Artist: Bethany Joy Galeotti
Album: Friends with Benefit
I never promised you a ray of light
I never promised there'd be sunshine everyday
I gave you everything I have
The good, the bad

Why do you put me on a pedestal?
I'm so up high that I can't see the ground below
So help me down, you got it wrong
I don't belong there

One thing is clear
I wear a halo, I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here
You wouldn't say so,
You wouldn't say so if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you
I, I just wanna love you

I always said that I would make mistakes
I'm only human and that's my saving grace
I fall as hard as I try
So don't be blinded
See me as I really am
I have flaws and sometimes I even sin
So pull me from that pedestal
I don't belong there

One thing is clear
I wear a halo,
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here,
You wouldn't say so,
You wouldn't say so if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you
I, I just wanna love you

Like you think that you know me
But in your eyes
I am something worthy
Only in your mind
Only in your mind

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here, you wouldn't say so
You wouldn't say so if you were me
And I, I just wanna love you
I, I just wanna love you
