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
