The Angel and the Dark River
You can't expect to see him and survive You'll swallow his tongue of thorns His mouth, dripping with flies In his glorious kingdom of fire But I believe he wept I will make them all lie down Down where hope lies dying With lust, you're kicking mankind to death We live and die without hope You tramp us down in a river of death As I stand here now, my heart is black I don't want to die a lonely man This is a weary hour This is a weary hour
Take your own Sick with fever And cry out loud to God Your sorry own Will be piled upon me That I can't see My God I've cried for earth More than once But rivers still run With reddest tears Be lost in me And I'll never need to ask Who wants me? Who wants Me? Be mine tonight. The sight of your light I'll breathe in you. I'm a fool, just for you I'm in pain And I don't know why Under heavy rain From darkest skies We're in pain The two of us And I no longer know Which way to go Open wide. Let me see Your bleeding heart cries for me Look straight up. Look at the sun This song's for her. Her requiem Open wide. Let me see A poisoned soul in agony Self pity strangles me I'm lashed by grief And I'm killing me Don't fear. My fire is enough For both of us

Lie beside me on the grass They're fighting me for thee mistress of beauty, thine eyes do shine Can we run forever? Does nightfall shine? Angel of mercy, carry me away Those black dogs tear at me They hunger for the life of me So lie beside me, neath the earth Lost forever from the earth Descending downwards. Is this our re-birth? Can you feel it? His cruelty glows This terrible journey, oh, that no-one knows Down Around here, I am Ruler of Kings Here Everywhere I Am Heard The Voice of me Enters you Now you're mine

The field of blood I'd left They mean nothing to you That war left scars on me Without you now, I'm free I'd found out what you'd done to me, girl I hate with as much passion as I love And so now, your time's come, for me girl The end. Your end. And my birth Walk away. Laughing away Remember you always, and wonder why? I'll suffer in your sea Your ocean bleeds into me I'll fall through your endless sky But never, ever cry Wounded by your cruelty Yes, I'll suffer in your sea The fields of blood I'd left They mean nothing to you That war left scars on me Without you now, I'm free

What is it you hope for, even though you are dying? And even though life is closing your tiny eyes Why did I leave them all? I should be with them to die in the same place The pain I think, should go on forever. For always But no. Not mine. Not now. My life now begins Call me what you will, but I'll die for no man, at all My limbs and the life that spreads from them Cross my path and you'll suffer like no man before, at all What I hunger for, is the trial of God For just two winters only did we live for My God. What have you become? Dear, dear lord We could have changed the world, had you been here with me. Right now Held you in my arms. In my arms, my love Jesus wept so man could live forever on earth. In peace But my tears. They fall for you. Only you

You, who stand there now I will not tell you not to cry Without fail my purpose Will be fulfilled I can crown you a God And I'll suffer for your sins Bound so tightly, pain is everything Far from kindness. I am your king Believe you're in Hell, but your's is Heaven Cry to die. You'll love me forever On a pale, teary cheek Tears cascade to your feet Whipped to the floor once again Laughing and lashing you away Burning pain scars through your skin But it's 'more' you cry, for you are a sinner We suffer in love, but you love to suffer Your misery is your majesty Though your skin may burn and your wounds, bleed The only real ache is between your legs You've learned well, through your Hell Your pain was nothing. You longed for more. Your shameful Heaven is full of devils Just like me. Just for you
