Alaska Highway – Even Angels Have To Die lyrics
Even angels have to die
And with their ascension we are buried deeper
Our world, in time, shall become a grave
And inside there will be dirt instead of feelings
All of our hearts must learn to break
For nothing beautiful lasts forever
The longing of what's lost will never fade
And a void is left
We'll feel so empty
Even angels have to die
No love on earth can restrain it's ending
Sadness waited to claim our fall
And we mourn for love that seeks a savior
Darkness finds me in my fate
The beautiful face which may bring salvation
This souls embrace may shatter and wound
Have I strength to admit my desperation?
Even angels have to die
But love is worth the tears that absence brings me
I'll bleed with you until I am drained
Though my color may prove to be less than perfect
Could the intent of your words be to invade
That place where nothing can breathe or dream eternal?
There is a fear that you will be torn away
And that I'll be left to my own decay
This thought of wasting haunts my mind
For my broken heart could not lose another angel
Please save me from my apathy that drains my sympathy
Just speak the words that need to be
Promise me that you will never die
