Fallen Angel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I could take a trip to outer space
She would be the one I will see when I get to Heaven's gate
She would welcome me with her arms open wide
And a smile will shadow me brighter than the sun
She hasn't had a fair chance, so I'll give her one
Let me tell you who she is, yeah

[Chorus]
(She's a fallen angel) Sent from Heaven up above
(She's a fallen angel) Waiting for me to love her, yeah
(Ooh, she's a fallen angel) Take your judgment off her
I know that (She's a fallen angel)
You know I—

[Verse 2]
Maybe I should help her mend her broken wings
So she can fly again
But I don't wanna lose everything that I've gained
It's turning me a selfish man, oh
'Cause without her my heart just don't go, no more, no more
I couldn't take the pain from watching her fly away
So say that you'll stay, she's mine

[Chorus]
(She's a fallen angel) Ooh, sent from Heaven up above
(She's a fallen angel) Waiting for me to love her, yeah
(Ooh, she's a fallen angel) So take your judgment off her
I know that (She's a fallen angel)
Don't you—
[Bridge]
Baby, don't you worry, I'm gon' help you fly
(Don't you worry, I'm gon' help you—, I'm gon' help you fly)
Just take me under your wing and we can reach the sky
(Take me under—, we can reach the—, we can reach the sky)
Baby, don't you worry, I'm gon' help you fly
(Don't you worry, I'm gon' help you—, I'm gon' help you fly)
Lil' mama, don't you worry, you're gon' reach the sky
(Take me under—, we can reach the—, we can reach the sky)

[Chorus]
She's a
(She's a fallen angel) Hey, hey, sent from Heaven up above just for me
(She's a fallen angel) Waiting for me to wrap my arms around her now
(Ooh, she's a fallen angel) We can do without the judgment, oh
I know that (She's a fallen angel)
Yeah, oh, woah

[Outro]
Baby, I know, I know that they done hurt you
But I'm here to take it all away
So if you let me, you know what, just put your heart in my hands
And everything they said, I take it back like this
Gnihton neam t'nod uoy, ay tnaq t'nod I
Ay deen t'nod I, reven devol ya
Ydobon er'uoy, ll'uoy reven ekam ti
Er'uoy a ekatsim, ho
You don't mean nothing, I don't want ya
I don't need ya, never loved ya
You're a nobody, you'll never make it
You're a mistake, oh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

In “Fallen Angel,” Chris compares a girl with hardships to an angel who fell from Heaven. In the song, Chris takes this somewhat broken girl, mends her and her wings so she can fly back to Heaven.

The outro contains reversed lyrics, which many have speculated is a subliminal message where Chris worships the Devil and is a part of the Illuminati. However, the lyrics are simply the negative things others have said about his fallen angel, and he reverses the lyrics in an attempt to take them back and make things right.
