And The Angel Comes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When she comes for me
She'll greet me like an old friend
So elegant
A misunderstood mistress
Drain my life from me
Embrace me like a long lost friend
Then abandon me in stillness
[Pre-Chorus]
As I lie in my cocoon past dusk when
Her angel descends upon me
Will he wake me gingerly
Or will he shake me violently?
I just want to be ready!
[Chorus]
Now I pray my soul to keep
And the angel comes for me
Now I lay me down to sleep
And the angel comes for me
[Verse 2]
He shall comfort me
Treat me like an old friend
Carry me into perfection
Dragon slay my fears
Guide me like I'm an other
He shall be my sole protection
[Pre-Chorus]
I will fly without wings
Through darkness without falling
Through walls and shadows
Cobwebs taste like cotton candy
I just want to be ready!
[Chorus]
Now I pray my soul to keep
And the angel comes for me
Now I lay me down to sleep
And the angel comes for me
[Pre-Chorus]
I will fly without wings
Through darkness without falling
Through walls and shadows
Cobwebs taste like cotton candy
I just want to be ready!
[Chorus]
Now I pray my soul to keep
And the angel comes for me
[Bridge]
Now my mission is complete
Please baptize me in all these salted tears
Stare at me in disbelief
I will become the greatest fear
Bury me in 6 feet of grief
After living with me all these years
[Chorus]
Now I pray my soul to keep
And the angel comes for me
