Here I kneel weeping rose petal tears
I feel I am breaking into scattered rays
I see shadows, candles sleeping
daylight is stealing away
Hark the stars cluster 'round the bell tower
while gloom in the dark there blooms like a flower
Listen it's priming to chime the night hour
the moon is spiraling widdershins over my head
it's raising the dead
are rising to my call as all my fear disappears
lighting crackles at my side
the churchyard comes to life
this is the price of a legend unraveled
time in the tower commences to strike
mine is the power mine is the right to climb, I'll climb
I'll climb the stairway of glittering points of light
ah..
They tell me demons never fly
vestigial wings, they're scared of light
never to look up, never to dance among the constellations
well, I know I might fall down
and smash into the ground, the churchyard swarms
I know they'll take me whole.
My bones are twisted and cold
a chill wind soars and continues to grow
emptiness beckons again, I hear your voice inside my head
You tell me that my kind
were never meant to fly
Yes I, I am a demon
I cannot lie but I will get even
Hark the stars... [continue chorus]..glittering points of light
They sawed my horns off one by one
blacked my crippled wings and howled
told me not to run
I never made a sound
You tell me that my kind
were never meant to fly
Yes I....[chorus]
They tell me demons never fly
Born without wings, they're scared of light
never to look up, never to dance among the constellations
They tell me demons never fly
well, I know I might fall down
(and smash into the ground, smash into the ground)
(and smash into the ground, smash into the ground)
Born without wings, they're scared of light
never to look up, never to dance among the constellations
..
well, I know I might fall down
Born without wings, they're scared of light
never to look up, never to dance among the constellations
..
well, I know I might fall down..
