remember those walls I built? (Halo)

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

Work Text:

Remember those walls I built?

Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But, I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now


It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breaking
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace.

~ Beyonce and Jay-z, Young Forever/Halo, as performed in Paris, September 2014.
