The Angelus

Lyrics

Verse 1
Forged in the forges of the Silver City
They filled her with power, but forgot the pity
With wings of gold and lunar mail
A perfect judge that could not fail
But in that shell of blinding white
There was no room for a soul to light.
​Pre-Chorus
They cranked the dials past the red
"Save us from the dark," they said
But when the power surged within
She found that everyone was sin.
​Chorus
The Angelus!
The ultimate weapon, the heavens' mistake
The foundations of Eden began to quake
The Angelus!
She judged the angels, she judged the throne
A goddess of vengeance, standing alone
She’s the light that blinds, the grace that kills
Bending the stars to her broken will!
​Verse 2
Summoned to break the Nephilim tide
To push the demon hordes aside
But the weight of the world was a jagged stone
And the pressure chilled her to the bone
She saw the flaws in the Father's design
And drew a new, blood-red line.
​Bridge
(Slow, heavy buildup)
She tore through the Earth and the heavens wide
The demons cheered 'til they also died
Fifty thousand years of war
A million wings upon the floor
Light and Shadow forced to hand-in-hand
To chain the savior of the land!
​Guitar Solo
(High-pitched, frantic, shredding)
​Outro
So now she waits in the deep embrace
Of iron chains and silent space
Wrapped in shadows, cold and still
Until the world requires her will
Waiting to show us her "saving grace"...
The Angelus.
The Angelus!
