Black angels spread their wings
And they swallow the sky
Carry my ghost to a hiding place

From cellophane smiles
And halos of barbwire


Fly me far from everything
From everyone and
Fly me away from myself


Tears of the crying Sun
Like despair on the wing

Swirl through the gray
like a cauldron achurn
For the Winter sky

Cry for the crows on the wire
For they fly no more


Take me far from everything
Everyone and
Take me away from myself


Far from you
Take me away from myself

Away from you

Silent like the January mist of morn

Skies adorned
Dressed in shadows dancing with the failing wind


But it's too late now
Too late now
Way too late

Too late
To make up for everything
Way too late

Too late
For taking back anything
Way too late

Too late
To cry for you
Way too late

Too late
To cry for myself


Black as the deepest night
As you fly on your way
Fly to my dreams

As you glide on the wings of my memory
Don't know where you're going
But please take me anyway


Take me far from everyone
And bid them all farewell

Take me far away from here
If you could only
Take me away from myself


Far from you
Take me away from myself

Away from you
