I was talking to an angel
I was bathing in her light
I could have sworn that every word that I said to her was true
but she knew that wasn’t right
I’d told her everything and nothing
all my tales from long ago
All my tragedies, all the hopes I’d had
every single bitter blow
I gave her every good reason
why I’d gone and killed my faith
and passed judgement on this world (around me)
in all my violence and (all my) hate
but she just smiled and looked in me
and whispered to my soul
she showed me how
my broken mind
was trying to control
she told me I could be the one
that I could know and love
she lifted me from far below
and held me up above
High up Above
High up Above
High up Above
High up Above
So I lay down with that angel
In the uncreated light
and died a thousand deaths of guilt and shame
In one eternal night
All my secrets laid before her
everything I’d tried to hide
every twisted story I had told
Every lie I’ve ever lied
Just when I thought that it was over
She made me open up some more
Until I gave her everything I had
bloody, bruised and raw
then she just smiled and looked in me
and whispered to my soul
she showed me how
my broken mind
was trying to control
she told me I could be the one
that even I could love
she lifted me from far below
and held me up above
High up Above
High up Above
High up Above
High up Above
lying with an Angel
bathing in her light
a thousand deaths of guilt and shame
in one eternal night
taken by my madness
to the gates of hell
now I’m giving everything I’ve got
To Angel Raziel

Take a look at my skin
take a look at the state i’m in
every pore clogged up with sin
take a look at my skin
take a look at my heart
broken up right from the start
all the love has been torn apart
take a look at my heart
every time I’m near you
every time I’m with you
Every time I see you
I just want to be you
every time I hear you
every time I fear you
Every time I see you
If only I could be you
take a look in my mind
never knew it could be so unkind
devastated by the things I find
take a look in my mind
take a look at my soul
its just a void, a dark black hole
spinning, helpless out of control
take a look at my soul
Every time I’m near you
every time I’m with you
every time I see you
I just want to be you
every time I hear you
every time I fear you
Every time I see you
If only I could be you
Try to help me understand
I only want to be a better man
Take me to the promised land
help me understand
Don’t leave me hanging on the wire
feel such a fraud, a cheat and a liar
bleeding out with ugly desire
Don’t leave me hanging on the wire
Every time I’m near you
every time I’m with you
every time I see you
If only I could be you
every time I hear you
every time I feel you
every time I see you
if only I could be you
Take a look at my skin
take a look at the state i’m in
every pore clogged up with sin
take a look at my skin
take a look at my heart
broken up right from the start
all the love has been torn apart
take a look at my heart
take a look in my mind
never knew it could be so unkind
devastated by the things I find
just take a look in my mind
take a look at my soul
just a void, a black hole
helpless out of control
take a look at my soul
I’m hanging on the wire
burning up with ugly desire
a fraud a cheat and a liar
Hanging on the wire
Take a look at my skin
Take a look at my skin
Take a look at my skin
Take a look at my skin
Take a look at my heart
Take a look at my heart
Take a look at my heart
Take a look at my heart
Take a look in my mind
Take a look in my mind
Take a look in my mind
Take a look in my mind
Take a look at my soul
Take a look at my soul
Take a look at my soul
Take a look at my soul

and the mother
and the sister
and the brother
Is this how it ends?
Is this how it ends?

Yes, this is how it ends.
Ah tah

Is this how it ends?
Is this how it ends?
Is this how it ends?
Yes, this is how it ends.

The Age of Miracles

If the age of miracles is still with us
let go of the thoughts you once had
the old ideas, the fear the mistrust
delusions that make you so sad
If the age of miracles is still with us
crawl from the wreckage at last
hope for a future
free from the chains of the past
If the age of miracles is still with us
and the promises made can come true
a new life beyond anything you could dream
right here, right now, for you
If the age of miracles is still with us
lose suspicion cast out the doubt
now matter how far down the scale you have gone
you can change from the inside out
If the age of miracles is still with us
let go of control, give up the fight
admit that you’re beaten, find a new power
to lead you from darkness into the light
Is the age of miracles is still with us?
Yes age of miracles is still with us
Is the age of miracles is still with us?
The age of miracles is still with us
