1. Angels And Rage


I count the reasons for the darkness

There lies a balance in dichotomy

The dead of night scares me

Yet the sun shocks the senses

Tossing me back and forth

I see the glimmer of the lining

Now it rains, soon it rains no more

Scorched by the heat, burning

The icy sting, numb and frozen

Angels and rage ...


Divergent thoughts collide in virtual silence


(Go ...) Face to face

(The two sides alone)

Which way should I go?


And now the angels

Weep the tears of rage

Again frustrated

... The clash of human ways

Angels and rage


The morning sun creeps in the shadows

One word of truth negates hypocrisy

To realize nothing

Caught between the seconds

Chasing me back and forth

Already, outcome is decided

Nothing new under the sun, they say

At every turn fate might

Try to stop me

Dragging me down


Opposing views defy all trace of reason


(Go ...) Face to face

(The two sides alone)

Leave me alone


And now the angels

Weep the tears of rage

Again frustrated

... The clash of human ways

Angels and rage


Sudden change, disturbing pattern

Defying all I ever thought was real

Feeling pulled by this

Senseless anger

But I will remain ... I remain

Out of breath, slipping backwards

The paradigm inverts before my eyes

At last I see clearly

All before me

Angels and rage


Divergent thoughts collide

They scream in silence and curse the night


(Go ...) Face to face

(The two sides alone)

Where did you do?

(Which way should I go?)


And now the angels

Weep the tears of rage

Again frustrated

... The clash of human ways

Angels and rage


And now the angels

Weep the tears of rage

Love or conquest

Where do we set the stakes?

Angels and rage

Angels and rage
