The angel and the devil walked alone on the bloody shore,
Wings tattered, hearts broken, eyes full of shame,
The ones who had crawled and whimpered and pleaded were no more,
The angel and the devil, known by no other name.
White wings torn asunder by claws and pure heart by evil deeds,
Black feathers litter the ground, bitter blood flowing,
Together, the angel and the devil, they have no other needs,
The goodness and pure, the evil and the dark, they are done sowing.
There are none left on the bloody banks of the river of Time,
Save the angel and the devil, lost, alone, adrift at sea,
The angel and the devil, every word a hit, a strike, a bell, a chime,
The angel and the devil, lost and so alone...the angel and the devil, you and me.
Wings tattered, hearts broken, eyes full of shame,
The ones who had crawled and whimpered and pleaded were no more,
The angel and the devil, known by no other name.
White wings torn asunder by claws and pure heart by evil deeds,
Black feathers litter the ground, bitter blood flowing,
Together, the angel and the devil, they have no other needs,
The goodness and pure, the evil and the dark, they are done sowing.
There are none left on the bloody banks of the river of Time,
Save the angel and the devil, lost, alone, adrift at sea,
The angel and the devil, every word a hit, a strike, a bell, a chime,
The angel and the devil, lost and so alone...the angel and the devil, you and me.
