Fallen angels standing guard Drift off to sleep as heaven falls hard Never knowing the world they had was gone Throwing halos, never caught Pure intentions born of impure thought Hands that offered hope have all but withdrawn Left to dream tomorrow from dust till dawn From dust till dawn…from dust till dawn From dust till dawn…from dust till dawn Signs and crosses paint the walls
Whispered vows and vespers in the halls Candles burn like witches wish the dark begone Seeking comfort, walking lines Your reflection only serves to mark the time Maybe the kindest cut has yet to be drawn You pray till morning light in dust till dawn From dust till dawn…from dust till dawn From dust till dawn…from dust till dawn
