When the Angels Cry - Pretty Maids

I pray the Lord my soul for him to keep

For all the world to see

To save me from the devil and his creep

To lay his hands on me

I feel the ground beneath me shake

I can’t rewind, I’m gonna fall

Father, forgive me

For we don’t know what we do

Love, resurrect me

To the world that I once knew

Depraved, deceased

A far out scenery

We know it all too well

The path we choose

To find the gates of heaven

Is just the road to hell

Raping the land and apocalyptic plans

It’s the nature of man

See what we’ve created

Stare into the face of time

Living in a world devastated

When the angels cry

Cry for salvation

When the final day has come

We’re the last generation

In the shades of Babylon

Denial, betrayal

No meaning to our failure

No answer to our pleas

A burnt out culture

Chaos and revolt

It’s mankind on its knees

Our future is vanishing

Like blood in the rain

Like a paper in flames

See what we’ve created

Stare into the face of time

Living in a world devastated

When the angels cry

Think of all the beauty we’ve wasted

Is this the end of it all?

And I saw another sign in heaven

Great and marvelous

Seven angels having seven plagues

Which are the last

For in them is finished the wraith of god

See what we’ve created

Stare into the face of time

Living in a world devastated

When the angels cry

See what we’ve created

Stare into the face of time

Living in a world devastated

When the angels cry

When the angels cry
