Lyrics Angel in Black - Reverence

Angel in Black

I always wondered just what it would be like
I would not go willingly, I’d fight it tooth and nail
But here in this moment, clinging to life
I realize all my struggling is to no avail
I am cowered before you
Your presence is so frightening
I can sense your power
Is my life over?
Covered by your wings
I know my fate is yours
Are you the cherub that has come to
Take me home?
Angel, angel in black
I know you’ve come to take me
But I can’t go back
Angel, angel in black
Please show me some mercy
And let me go back
It is clear that I am powerless before you
And all my pleading is falling on deaf ears
But my short time on earth has not been enough
And I am begging you for just a few more years
