angels of ashes
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
