Our Lady Peace - Angels Losing Sleep lyrics

[Lyrics: LoSicco'95]

Argentum chains, blind my eyes

With silver spikes, I'm crucified

Ignorant fools! Upon this pyre am I to burn?

You can not win for life's to short for you to learn

I am immortal and shall be when all is not

I see the flesh to life and then to ground upon which it rots

Within the night, a tribe revolts

(I was) caught from behind (with) a kneblasch bolt

Now return to a scene of foolish pride

A camp surrounds a fire whose fueled by what was flesh of mine

The meek pray, the timid shield their eyes

A brilliant flame reflects upon the chains held fast inside

A pool of essence and dripping fats

Seep into the charred grass

What light rejects can not pass

I will rise from the ash

Taint and earth combine

As nature of my will

With years between the flames and now

A wounded tribesman nears

His lifeblood issues forth

Into my "resting ground"

And occupying his vacant shell

I walk the earth again

I am immortal and shall be when all is not

I see the flesh to life and then to ground upon which it rots

I rise, I am the immortal crucified

I rise, I am the immortal crucified

I rise, I am the immortal crucified

I rise, Your fucking Light has died

I rise, I am the immortal crucified

I rise, I am the immortal crucified

I rise, I am the immortal crucified

I rise, Your fucking Light has died
