    Question Need Title & Artist: "...I am the one who will never die young..."

    Can't find the title or artist or anything. Mostly a woman's voice with male harmonies.

    Here's the lyrics:

    When the angels came down did they give you a choice
    Would they ever let you stay where you were
    Or not to live here in pain, to not bring you shame and
    the light is so hard to deter

    Well did the gates of heaven look just as you thought
    Did sister Mary describe them quite well
    Years of Catholic school were all good to you
    because you were the angel who fell

    Chorus:
    And I am the one who will never die young
    I am the martyr and I cannot hide
    But I'm not a winner, I'm just brilliantly bitter
    And sealed by my skin, but broken inside

    Angels are fragile, devils are hard
    and life is masquerade
    Colors will blend and hearts will all mend
    just tell me you were never afraid

    Chorus

    And there are babies laughing and
    children running and they say
    read me a book or sing me a song

    And I was the one who I felt so so sorry for
    but you are the one who is gone

    So will you save me a seat if I make it that far
    (Will you even know)? that I am the one
    I will be old for the angels have told me
    That I will never die young.

    Chorus

    And I will be old for the angels have told me
    That I...will never die young.
