lyrics

The cry of a child at the waxing moon
Breaks the still of the night and my focus on you
The obsession of will, like a torture again
Takes form in the air as the candlelight wanes
Oh, Angel you are and will always be
I’m passing through states but playing one scene
I lay with the body that you possess
As direction grows, leaving the flesh
Within you once more time draws to an end
Revisiting echoes that I must comprehend
The past is tomorrow, illusions now seen
I move with you tonight let’s change what has been

"Beside him I wake up to another dawn
As he turns to me, I know you have gone
Back to the life you dare not betray
Still I won’t stop the instinct that leads me away"

And I still search while walking blind
For the key to your door and the secret time hides
Peel back the mask of scars and lines
To unveil a life through which your soul will shine

Over all of these years my will was the guide
But the balance explodes when two worlds collide
Angel-fire burns – the gods wrath
Angel-fire burns – a sanctified path
My lover tomorrow, a ghost today
If I shed my skin tonight will you stay?

I hear you calling, I hear you calling
Your voice it rides upon the wind
