Lyrics
GOOD-BYE HALO
(McCormick/Flowerree/Allen)
You've been hangin' over my head since I was a child
Keepin' me in line, you would never let me get wild
This battle raging in me - the angel always wins
But I've been growin' weaker fightin' off the devil within
Say good-bye Halo tonight I'm flyin' solo
I'll be on my own and I might not make it home
Set my course of action
Don't need your distraction to save my soul
Say Good-bye halo
I've been wakin' up in my bed, my pillow soaked in tears
I cry out for love, all I ever find are my fears
Brought up to be the good girl watching from the side'
Left out while the bad girls end up walking off with the prize
Chorus
I've always surrendered when you asked me to
But now it's time for me to choose
Which path to take for Heaven's sake
Chorus
