Halo - Veridian

I’ve been staring at portraits of strangers for days

(Days on end, days on end, days on)

The annotations tell me stories that I feel are about me

Crack open my head and pour in

Some shit I don’t need to know

Numb the sense that I feel so alone

And everybody’s wearing Halos

I watch them out my window

Now I don’t wanna go outside

And feel like I’m inferior

I see them acting like they’re angels

Making me feel so insecure

Now I’m unsatisfied

With my life again

I want everyone I know to think I’m living out their dreams

(Envy me, admire me)

Perfect lighting, pick my good side

Look candid, busy and happy

(It's all a lie)

Consider this a photograph of the person that I could be

One day I swear I will be everything

That I promised you

And everybody’s wearing Halos

I watch them out my window

Now I don’t wanna go outside

And feel like I’m inferior

I see them acting like they’re angels

Making me feel so insecure

Now I’m unsatisfied

Why don’t I have a halo?

Halos

Acting like angels

I don’t wanna go outside

And live my life

Again

Now everybody’s wearing Halos

Now I don’t wanna go outside

And feel like I’m inferior

I see them acting like they’re angels

Making me feel so insecure

Now I’m unsatisfied

With my life again
