Halo
Note: my first fic involving Castiel, which means, yes, spoilers for season 4. songfic of sorts to Bethany Joy Lenz's Halo. So, feedback is appreciated, but as per ususal I'm not gonna beg you, I hope you enjoy it mostly written to take my mind off of my rapidly failing relationship, and a theory that Castiel is not going to equal good things for the brothers Winchester.

So of course it was only fitting that Dean was an angel.
Only in your mind
I wear a halo
Sam's love for Dean surpasses big brother, hero worship.
Dean's not just his brother, but his lord, savior, and holy trinity.
Dean's saved him.
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.
He knows what Sam thinks, and he wishes he could show him how wrong he really was.
How wrong it all was.
He never should have trusted the warrior from god that pulled him from hell. Like any other supernatural creature, Castiel used them.
'You're destined to kill him, and put an end to the rein of evil'
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
He showed him all the ways in which Sam had lied to him.
Ruby was still alive. His brother was screwing with Ruby, and he never even knew until Castiel shoved his face into it.
Ruby's pet, instructing him how to use the once dormant psychic powers.
The night in the nursery. His mom knew the yellow eyed demon, and Sam knew…and never told him.
Sam. Liar.
Sam. Liar.

But standing from here, you wouldn't say so
you wouldn't say so, if you were me
'Lucifer's pet, and crown prince, Dean.' Castiel reminded him. 'The only reason you're returned to life is to right the wrong you've created. You're the only one who can fix it.'
His deal made Sam untouchable to angel-kind. Something about sacrifice.
All it was, was spinningspinningspinning, kill your brother, right your wrong, redeemer; redeem the world.
Castiel handed him the knife of the redeemer, the one and only to destroy the crown prince of evil.
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.
'Finish what you've begun.' Castiel instructed him.
Dean took the knife from him, and swiftly plunged it into his chest.
One thing is clear,
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
If that's what he is I made it so, Dean decided, all the lectured from his father rushing through his mind.
Protect you brother.
Don't let anything happen to Sammy.
If he becomes evil, you're going to have to kill him.
Never.
Why you think that you know me
But In your eyes
I am something above you
Sam was the only thing that mattered.
Not the pending apocalypse, not even what his mom used to tell him just remember to say your prayers when you get scared and everything will be okay, not even that he maybe just might have doomed the human race.
Sam.
It's only in your mind
