Angel Face

The white of the eye Holds a dark centre Our souls behind a tinted window Dare to let me see what sins you hide...? The face of an angel With the heart of a demon ‘cos we’re all immortal On the faces God’s tattooed onto our skin I move to your lips Every syllable articulated Your kiss’s a quantum leap But with every word your love tightens I'm suffocated I submit my heart To all your expectations Here tear it apart Then let me watch you perform open-heart surgery So what if God is vane Clearly He was showing off He created our very souls But confession of sin ensures we’re not his equal Above the rainclouds Your feathers tickle my... My freewill wears a disguise ‘cos every time I ring your bells...angel you sing Illuminating the skies Like a bolt of lightning Crashing on a broken wing Yeah that’s how daredevils fly...not afraid to die! The face of a demon With the heart of an angel ‘cos we’re all beautiful On the faces God’s tattooed onto our heads
