ANIMALS AND ANGELS
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.
Animals and Angels 
I will not suffer gladly for the penance of the wing, the animal must 
validate his hunger, humbled silence whispers sage but cannot say a 
thing, a desire goes blank as the blood grows younger, the elements 
grow weary of the strain of heavens weight, the construct is a 
reference to this bearing, sky is all fireworks and shooting stars when 
the angels mate, the animal struck dumb in wonder staring. 
Heart pumped worlds grow weary in the chase of orbits tail, surviving 
on the crumbs of lifes token, bated with dumb reason when the strut 
of time does fail, and the statuary of this life lies broken, illusory 
skies beckon with the chanting of the lot, animals fight in temples of 
creation, lost to all that tooth and nail can divine from this plot, 
vested in the power of sensation. 
Animals and angels and heavens dream of earth is on the cusp of 
waking, doom and glory twinned in raptures question; the oneness 
made flesh in this aching, buildings forged of words corrupt the flight 
path of the angels deliberate wing, as the animal tries to take his Michael McGuire - Animals And Angels - http://motolyrics.com/michael-mcguire/animals-and-angels-lyrics.html
feeble growl and make it sing, the sky is heavens warning of the 
brutal ground and its wing crushing catch, and how must you deliver 
grace to this wingless dreamless and tooth fed wretch, stuck in habit 
worship and the vivid plainness of the flesh and its decay, there is no 
tread that does not lay intent on the dumb truth of the manufactured 
way. 
I will not be crushed beneath this endless depth of sky, hung in 
gravity upon this alter, encrypted dreams that only bring the dreamer 
a new why, in choice divine he is left to falter, the ceaseless ceremony 
of the clawing at the dirt, living down the burden of the meaning, he 
fumbles with the keys of Cain and the duty of his hurt, while all of 
heavens host is drunk and leaning. 
I do not know the reference for the coin of the days, the angels bait 
the paradox of motion, habit of direction qualifies as the way, fantasy 
goes drowning for the ocean, when the sky is grounded upon the 
animals tired back, and angels tread the path of his making, the 
inventory taken then of all that he does lack, will humble angels to 
give what theyve been taking.
