Midnight breath on silver skin
Stars are falling from within
I hear your name in broken light
Whispered wrong, but felt so right
Your shadow dances on the wall
Like a sin that learned to pray
I was never meant to fall
But you taught me how to stay
Every scar is a constellation
Every tear learns how to fly
I was born from hesitation
You were born to say goodbye
Black angel, take me higher
Through the silence, through the fire
If I burn, let me burn slow
In your wings of fallen snow
Black angel, don’t be kind
Read the truth inside my mind
Heaven bends when you exhale
Black angel, let me fail
Your halo cracks like porcelain
Gold turns dark around your head
Love tastes sweet like medicine
If it’s poison, let me drink it dead
We speak in scars and afterglow
In languages the gods forgot
Every yes is learned from no
Every soul is overbought
I don’t need a resurrection
I don’t want a sacred cure
Give me beautiful infection
Something dangerous and pure
Black angel, pull me under
Teach my fear to feel like thunder
If I sink, don’t save my soul
Let me lose all my control
Black angel, stay unreal
Teach my heart what not to heal
If this love is meant to end
Black angel, don’t pretend
If I’m damned, then damn me slowly
With your lips, not holy words
I believe in you unholy
In the truth that never hurts
We are echoes without origin
We are sparks that never sleep
I don’t want to be forgiven
I just want you when I bleed
Black angel, hold me still
Between the silence and the will
If the sky begins to fall
Let it fall, I want it all
Black angel, fade with me
In this broken eternity
No goodbye, no saving sign
Black angel, you are mine
Midnight breath, no alibi
Two dark wings against the sky
If this is wrong, then make it last
Angels aren’t meant to stay…
They pass.
