"alas my love you say goodbye
Em/B Am
wipe the poison from my brow
Em Am/C
alas my love this guilty night
Em/B Am
it gives me up like a foster child
and in this moment I take my vow
at these angels sleeping at my feet
Am7 Em9
and in this moment you do not know how
Am7 E5 F#5 G5
how my spirit wants to flee."
Am7 Em
You see what was one man, against the night
Am7 C B E5 E5 E5 E5
taking on a multitude that had left him high and dry

no candle burning vigil could light the way,
E5 E5 E5 E5
darkness hit the ground like a fallen satellite
Em E5 E5 E5 E5
he wrestled until morning with human souls
Em
and dark angels
Em E5 E5 E5 E5
and there he finished his work
Em
on the third day.
remember.
