I'm calling for an angel
to prise me from this world
to take my soul to the clouds above
to have my life unfurled

I'm calling for a demon
to infiltrate my mind
to banish all I see as good
to make me walk the line

I'm calling for a lover
to mend my broken heart
to reunite the pieces
to never let them part

I'm calling for a rainbow
to visit me at night
to wash away the colour
'til all is black and white
