[Verse 1]
Ash on my lips
Grave-dust on my tongue
I walk through the rows
Calling out the young
Names carved in stone
Still warm in my hands
You pray to the sky
I answer where you stand
[Chorus]
I am the angel of death
Halo made of rust and bone
Every last borrowed breath
Ends with me
You walk alone
I am the angel of death
Dress stained black with your regret
You can beg
You can bleed
But I never
Ever forget
[Verse 2]
Moon like a wound
Dripping through the glass
I wait by your bed
Counting every gasp
Cold feathered wings
Drag marks in the floor
You dream you can run
I’m already at your door (wake up)
[Chorus]
I am the angel of death
Halo made of rust and bone
Every last borrowed breath
Ends with me
You walk alone
I am the angel of death
Dress stained black with your regret
You can beg
You can bleed
But I never
Ever forget
[Bridge]
You wanted forever?
Forever is mine
I cradle your terror
Like sacrament wine
Your heart is a drum
Beating time for the end
When silence comes
I call you “friend” (come home)
[Chorus]
I am the angel of death
Halo made of rust and bone
Every last borrowed breath
Ends with me
You walk alone
I am the angel of death
Dress stained black with your regret
You can scream
You can pray
But I cash every single debt
