So high above the world tonight
|
The angels watch us sleeping
|
And underneath a bridge of stars
|
We dream in safety's keeping
|
But perhaps the dream
|
Is dreaming us
|
Soaring with the seagulls
|
Perhaps the dream
|
Is dreaming us
|
Astride on the backs of eagles
|
|
When the angels fall
|
Shadows on the wall
|
In the thunder's call
|
Something haunts us all
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
|
Take your father's cross
|
Gently from the wall
|
A shadow still remaining
|
See the churches fall
|
In mighty arcs of sound
|
And all that they're containing
|
Yet all the rugged souls
|
Looking for their lost homes
|
Shuffle to the ruins
|
From the levelled plain
|
To search among the tombstones
|
|
When the angels fall
|
Shadows on the wall
|
In the thunder's call
|
Something haunts us all
|
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
|
These are my feet
|
These are my hands
|
These are my children
|
And this is my demand
|
Bring down the angels
|
Cast them from my sight
|
I never want to see
|
A million suns at midnight
|
|
Your hands are empty
|
The streets are empty
|
You can't control us
|
You can't control us anymore
|
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
When the angels fall
|
|
