Archangel

You pull up low
A gleam in the dark
A cold stone figure
With a grin that could cut

Your halo fractures
Into busted glass
A choir of whispers
From a past that won't last

You say: Stay close with that steel-hard face
But the bass keeps shaking through the joints in place

I catch the scent on your silver cuff
A little bit of heaven looking worn and rough
You were talking signs like a room full of static
But the cape keeps dragging through the blackened traffic

Oh, you almost struck me with the velvet and bone
But the floor keeps turning when you get too close
Oh, you keep on moving, and I split cold glare
But the whole block knows you when the trumps hang there

(Archangel shadow) halo split
(Archangel shadow) I don't forget
(You wear that blessing) like it's nothing at all
(Archangel shadow) and I hit the wall

Hit
Hit

Your phone glows, pair, like a cheap confession
Two names in the frame, one prayer, one tension, ah
Borrow light or manufactured glow
But the high has battled through the undertow

You make it look holy, then you flip that blade
Turn the room to a judge with the lights half raised
And that effort you'd sell comes wrapped in gold
But it cracks in my hands, cold, cold, cold

Oh, you almost struck me with the velvet and bone
But the floor keeps turning when you get too close
Oh, you keep omoving,ng and I split cold glare
But the whole block knows you when the trumps hang there

(Archangel shadow) halo split
(Archangel shadow) I don't forget
(You wear that blessing) like it's nothing at all
(Archangel shadow) and I hit the wall

Hit
Hit
Hit

Go on
Turn it again like that baseline drag
Like a chain through rain
No soft landing, no clean fate
I see the seam, I see the blade

Archangel shadow
With the static grin
You don't save the room
You pull it in

(Archangel shadow) halo split
(Archangel shadow) I don't forget
(You wear that blessing) like it's nothing at all
(Archangel shadow)
