They see all the good
They're torn towards all the bad
They know what's coming
But they never look back
To all they could have had
They want their justice
Yet, they leave it to the devil
Dressed all in black
With wilted roses
Tattooed across their backs
They've fallen,
Deceived, tortured and abandoned
Their holy calling
There's a war raging between
Their moral stance
Their inner desires
And their loyalty
They never leave life to chance
These Angels in black
With wilted roses
Tattooed across their backs,
Daggers, swords and knives
Have red stained faces
And hold the fate
Of all our lives
They can feel the shame
Of this deadly game they play
Yet, these Angels in black
With wilted roses
Tattooed across their backs,
Sacrifice everything for our souls
Yet, a soul
Is *all they truly lack
