[Intro]
Low sky
No sun
Footsteps
All run
[Verse 1]
Black wings
Cut the dawn in half
Cold ash
On every flag and mast
You taste rust
On the breath you gasp
My dark angel
Pours it like a glass
[Pre-Chorus]
You feel that pull
In your teeth
In your spine
You’re already mine
Already mine
[Chorus]
Bow to the dark angel rising
Head low while the world catches fire
Every chain
Every king
Every siren
Falls quiet when we climb higher
My dark angel
My dark angel
Takes the world
[Verse 2]
Church bells
Crack under the strain
Gold crowns
Grinding into grain
You pray
But
I’m the echo in the stain
My dark angel
Carves a brand in your name
[Pre-Chorus]
You feel that hum
In your blood
In your eyes
You’re crossing the line
Crossing the line
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[crescendo]
March in the smoke
Step by step
To the edge of the globe
No gods
Just the howl of the crowd
My dark angel
Speaking so loud
[low vocal register]
Kneel
While the sky turns red
Kneel
While we cut that thread
Kneel
Every oath you said
Kneel
To the crown of the dead
[guitar solo]
[Chorus]
