Halo Lyrics

I never promised you a ray of light
I never promised there'd be sunshine everyday
I'll give 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've 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,
Oh oh 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
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you

Why'd you think that you know me
But In your eyes
I am something above you
It's only in your mind
Only in your mind
I wear a
I wear a
I wear a halo

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,
Oh oh I, I just wanna love you (I just wanna love you)

Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo
Ha ha-ha halo

Cover art for Halo lyrics by Haley James Scott

To me, this song means someone else looking at me as if I'm an angel and expecting that that's what I will be. Like they have imagined and created this made up person in their mind who is supposed to be me and expecting that how that person acts is how I will. But we are all imperfect.

I also interpret this as if I am the one expecting myself to be perfect and angelic. As if the song is being sung from me to me.
