BACK

HEY, YOU FOUND ONE!!

ANGELS AND DEMONS

Changeling,

Your Flesh,

Necromancy,

Your ashes,

No tomorrow,

Your omens,

Says Asrael

Lucifer & Gabriel

Host & The Holy Ghost

Dust

Superstitions

Voices...

----------

Little girl kneels

At the foot of the bed,

Angels and demons

Play in her head.

She carries them around

Wherever she goes,

She puts on a brave face

But somehow it shows.

Little boy stands

At the foot of the stairs,

Hoping that someone

Will answer his prayers.

He puts out the candle –

It catches his eye

As ten thousand spaceships fill the sky.

----------

CHORUS

Angels and demons,

Omens and requiems;

Peers and sightseers,

Merchants with souvenirs.

----------

Little boy runs

To the top of the stairs,

A voice in his head

Says "Don't worry, we care.

We've been watching you

Standing there,

Cascading messages

Through the air –

"We're the angels and demons

That play with your hair,

We're the angels and demons,

And we're always there.

We are the breeze

At the well of the stairs;

We are the noises

When no-one is there."

----------

REPEAT CHORUS

----------

The sky feeds the earth

And the earth feeds me –

Come with us and we'll let you see,

The lofty spiders

Climb swiftly away,

Our rumbling machine

Takes us to another day.

Little boy smiles

As they whisk him away –

"My angels and demons

Have come to play.

Monsters with claws,

Wings and all!

I can walk through the air

Without touching the floor."

----------

REPEAT CHORUS

----------

Little girl cries

At the foot of the bed,

Angels and demons

Play in her head.

She carries them around

Wherever she goes –

She puts on a brave face

But somehow it shows.

A spaceship descends,

The demon spreads his wings,

Says he's here to be

Earth's friend again.

Little girl cries

At the foot of the bed,

Wondering what it is

That plays in her head.

Who knows?

It shows

Who knows?

It shows...

Who knows?
