Angels Would Fall

<br>The rope that`s wrapped around me<br>Is cutting through my skin<br>And the doubts that have surrounded me <br>Are finding their way in <br>I keep it close to me <br>Like a holy man prays <br>In my desperate hour<br>It`s better that way <br><br>So I`ll come by and see you again <br>I`ll be such a very good friend <br>Have mercy on my soul<br>I will never let you know <br>Where my mind has been<br><br>Angels never came down<br>There`s no one here they want to hang around<br>But if they knew <br>If they knew you at all<br>Then one by one the angels <br>Angels would fall <br><br>I`ve crept into your temple <br>I have slept upon your pew<br>I`ve dreamed of the divinity <br>Inside and out of you<br>I want it more than truth <br>I can taste it on my breath<br>I would give my life just for a little death<br><br>So I`ll come by and see you again<br>I`ll be just a very good friend<br>I will not look upon your face <br>I will not touch upon your grace <br>Your ecclesiastic skin <br><br>I`ll come by and see you again<br>I`ll have to be a very good friend<br>If I whisper they will know <br>I`ll just turn around and go <br>You will never know my sin
