down_came_the_angels paranoid martyr [by Lift to Experience] What's that in the sky shining silver shimmering sleek A star a star is born Down came the angels from heaven up above Drunk on the passion and the fragrance of song With feathered wings flapping Upon the wind to my door they did descend Quietly a knock Forgive the intrusion but we've travelled so far Three wise men who seek a star Came down from heaven from the throne of the great The council of the Mullisites sent us to speak in their place We seek shelter with a storm on the horizon Can you give us what we seek Give us shelter for our friends and I All I have I give unto you And all I have is this humble abode You're welcome to rest here if I may be so bold Tell me what it was that was said just as was told Fair enough my friend I'd hate to keep you unaware Then do come in and let me entertain you Well don't hesitate, out with it now, I'm in Ernest pray tell What was it that was spoken that my soul he said well My Son it's a bit complicated you see To say what was said is nothing easy They sent us here to dry the sea To crash the tide and protect the free They hung a watch upon my wall to sound the alarm What sort of console does the summons now seek? My son they didn't say they just gave us our message and sent us on our way All I know is to follow the star The star that's set over this meagre barn you inhabit And you're not what we expected all covered in shit But we're just the messengers and we know far better than to try and interpret And when we deliver this message the council of God That in exchange for all these things God will bless the man with angel wings Fly above, see beyond More lies than words and given power over the curse To call upon the storms My son if you want God to bring about these strange and wildest things He requires as cost that you must count his loss if you want those angel wings In exchange for all these things he requires something already quite his What, what does he ask? In exchange for the wings he requires your life for this 030727 what's it to you? who go blather from
