Angels Of Ashes

Lyrics

The Angels of ashes
 Will give back your passions
 Again and again
 ♪
 Their light shafts
 Will reach through the darkness
 And touch you my friend
 ♪
 They'll fly in a mind dance
 And blind you with wings
 Wrapped in flame
 ♪
 If you're down to an echo
 They just might remember
 Your name
 ♪
 In the unbroken darkness
 Where emptiness
 Empties alone
 ♪
 There's no starting or stopping
 Where there is no right
 Or no wrong
 ♪
 Well that's all right for some
 Who can hang the absurd
 On their wall
 ♪
 If your blind hands can't grope
 Through these measureless waters
 You'll fall
 ♪
 You've been following patterns
 And fleeting sensations
 Too long
 ♪
 And the fullness that fills up
 The pulse of durations is gone
 ♪
 Let the great constellation
 Of flickering ashes be heard
 ♪
 Let them burn with a fire
 All it takes to confess
 Is a word, just a word
 I can recommend angels
 I've watched as they've made a man strong
 Oh so strong
 If your humbleness shows
 Then I'm sure that they'll take you
 Along
 ♪
 You can tell them who sent you
 It might help to get you above
 ♪
 You can say that he laughed
 And he walked like St. Francis
 With love
