Verse 1
Eyes above me, always find me When I walk through, right behind me Three feet of sky and you keep it faithful Hum so low I forget I'm alone You catch me from the angle I could never The crown I can't wear, you wear it for me Doorway swallows me, you tuck in and follow Rise again like you never came down
Pre-chorus
There's a pulse at my collar reading my weather It knows the fall before the floor does If it all goes wrong in the middle of nowhere You've already called somebody who loves me
Chorus
You hang above me like a halo Slow glow circling my head Any street I've never walked down You've already walked ahead If I tremble you can feel it, feel it Tethered to me by a thread I don't check over my shoulder Heaven's hovering instead
Post-chorus
Halo, keep it glowing on me Halo, never powering down
Verse 2
Subtitles under a stranger's smile You translate everyone but me Two blinks and I keep the moment forever Gold arrows melting into the street Left shoe hums and I lean to the corner City reads like a hand I'm holding A finger in the air signs all my answers One squeeze, I'm approved, I'm golden
Pre-chorus
But who catches you when you're falling Who watches over my overseer If I'm somebody worth the keeping Circle me off the clock, stay here
Chorus
You hang above me like a halo Slow glow circling my head Any room I walk in nervous You've already read the crowd If I tremble you can feel it, feel it Tethered to me by a thread I don't check over my shoulder Heaven's hovering instead
Bridge
Kill the feed, let the halo down Down to one small drum Your pulse or my pulse, I can't tell Which one keeps which one alive If the sky went quiet tomorrow Would anybody know where I went I never needed the view from above I just wanted somebody walking me home
Chorus
You hang above me like a halo Slow glow circling my head Any street I've never walked down You've already walked ahead If I tremble you can feel it, feel it Tethered to me by a thread I don't check over my shoulder Heaven's hovering instead
Post-chorus
Halo, keep it glowing on me Halo, never powering down It isn't love but it shines like it From three feet above
Inside the recording
Eyes above me, always find me When I walk through, right behind me
There's a pulse at my collar reading my weather It knows the fall before the floor does
Halo, keep it glowing on me Halo, never powering down
