Halo by Simon Hughes

Hi.

I´m a german and my english is not that good enough to understand all the words in this song.
I think he may swallow a lot of syllables or it is his British accent and some words I´ve never heard.
I learned most of my english from american songs/news/films and german school teachers long ago.


Here you can hear the song....... its not that famous but I think its a good song while I´m basically hear Hip Hop.

Now I write down what I understand ..... I know there is a lot wrong cause a lot dont make sense .... I put the certain wrong words into question marks.

..... please correct it.


1.Verse:
---------------------------
When the sky calms down empty your head
like a wing "?shut a set-up/setter man?", gettin ready the way girl
Well you can "?bind?" your "?skim?" I want you "?send/sand?"
is like hole in the earth to swallowed you ... ohohohohoh
Well you can stop your the "?branding?"
cause everytime I see you keep on profess in on "?haul/how thats up .... ?"
well tell me was stay the same

Chorus:
---------------------------
Cause I see you in a dare from "?way/where?"
everytime I love you playin that stupid game
And I "? want/won´t ?" be force just to give you a name
so "?....................................?" so I can live another "?day?"
just protect in by your faith

2.Verse
--------------------------
When you see me walking with open hands
like a "?buddy?" "?start a/staring?" wonder, gettin ready the way girl
Well you can "?hard/hold?" your head its a "?.....................?"
may we stay there any thunder, thats just your love
Why your head still spinning
I´ll be "?sad/said?" that chillin on a "?deaded?" by the water
with the smile on my face yeah, yeah
friends are put me in my ways

Chorus:
--------------------------
Cause I see you in a dare from "?way/where?"
everytime I love you playin that stupid game
And I "? want/won´t ?" be force just to give you a name
so "?....................................?" so I can live another "?day?"
just protect in by your

Bridge:
--------------------------
Cause sometimes it feels like you´re a halo on a hunch back crying
everybody wants to know the truth but "?cheats/she´s?" love cry through
may if you looking for a purpose and keep on trying
cause I see an angel lifes in you, in you..... no, no, no

modified Chorus:
-------------------------
And I see you in a dare from "?way/where?"

Thank you very much...................

1.Verse:
---------------------------
When the sky comes down into your head,
Like a vein shot of sentiment, get ready to wake up,
Well you can pinch your skin, the one to sin,
It's like a hole in the earth to swallow you up,
Well you can stop your complaining,
Cos everytime I see you keep on professing on how that's all changed,
Well tell me what stays the same.

Chorus:
---------------------------
Cos I see you in a different way,
Everytime I look, you're playing that stupid game,
And I won't be forced to give you a name,
So I duck, when I see you so I can live another day,
Just to protect my own faith.

2.Verse
--------------------------
When you see me walking with open hands,
Like a buddy starting to wonder, getting ready to wake up,
Well you can hide your head, it's an early grave,
Maybe stay there any longer, that's just your luck,
While your heads still spinning,
I'll be sat there chilling on a jetty by the water,
With a smile on my face yeah, yeah,
Thanks for putting me in my place.

Chorus:
--------------------------
Cos I see you in a different way,
Everytime I look, you're playing that stupid game,
And I won't be forced just to give you a name,
So I duck, when I see you so I can live another day,
Just to protect my own.

Bridge:
--------------------------
Cos sometimes it feels like you're a halo on a hunchback crying,
And everybody wants to know the truth, but you look right through,
If you're looking for a purpose, then keep on trying,
Cos I see an angel lies in you, in you..... no, no, no.

modified Chorus:
-------------------------
Then I'll see you in a different way,
Everytime I look, you won't have to play that stupid game,
And I won't have to be forced just to give you a name,
And I'll be your new recruit, when the seas pass on it's way.

Be protecting our own,
Our faith, our faith, our faith,
Protecting our own,
Our faith, our faith, our faith,
Protecting our own,
Our faith, our faith, our faith,
Protecting our own.

Thank you for the lyrics .... I was completely wrong ... but i know the most of them words.
Why I couldn´t understand it ??? Very strange binding.....

But now with your post I hear it very clear.... and the lyrics make sense....

Thank you, thank you, thank you
