Dark Angel

And yes, we are mortal
Now that we have left Eden
The raven is calling for my soul
Come, come, come
Dark angel, strengthen me

Ablaze my rage, come, dark angel
Tear open my wounds, let me bleed
Keep me free of indifference
Drink my sorrows, gorge my grief

Help me to shine in godlike anger
Help me never to forget
Let me hate and let me live
Let me remember that we've met

And that you've cast your spell on me
Far off lies the universe
Sunk in ashes, sunk in mud, sunk in tears
Far off lies, lies, lies reality

And yes, we are vulnerable
Vulnerable and earth tied
But it doesn't matter any more
Come, come, dark angel, be my guide

Before I slip into the damnation
Of obedience and apathy
In a cloud of dust and blood
Come, dark angel, rescue me

Help me to shine in godlike anger
Help me never to forget
Let me hate and let me live
Let me remember that we've met

Come
