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
