Blinding Rage Lyrics

We've been lost at sea for 20 days now
Light brights up the night, my starving guts growl
I'm stranded on a ship of glass
Which day will be my last?
I toss and turn in my bed
An angel was lowered down from the clouds
With pink wings and legs like a grasshopper;
Sixteen eyes in her head, trembling, screaming in a dead language
The captain locked the angel in a cage
Then lightning crushed his skull with blinding rage

One by one the crew fell sick with illness
While the angel was locked in imprisonment
My skin turned translucent
Everyone could see my organs trembling like the gears of a clock
The first mate whose guts where stung with hunger
Tried one night to kill the strange angel
He turned into a hawk, with wings that peeled right off
We could not stand the sight of his crippled state
So we threw him overboard with blinding rage

I can't sleep to save my life
All these dreams keep me up at night
See that black curtain coming for me
Right now

The cook and I were the only two alive
The cook lusted for the angel all day and night
The sky formed his face in stars, the face said do that angel no harm
But he touched her skin anyway
The next day the cook was not in his bed
I heard him cry for help inside a mirror
Where he was trapped for life
And he could never die, just watch all his friends slowly age
And beat against the glass with blinding rage

I'm on my back watching clouds collide
All alone I know I surely will die
But before I expire, I untie the angel's barbed wire
And see land approach like a books last page
And take my last breath with blinding rage
