“Sombre music suitable for all occasions.” is the thought that springs to mind. I don’t know very many people but four of those closest are in various states of grief. A Great Waving Banner of Disbelief.
This is the song ‘When Angels fall’ as it now stands, nine months after it was started.
When angels fall - I could say I’m lonely
When angels fall I could say I’m sad
It doesn’t take too much
To make tears in these eyes
Tears in these eyes
Well you may think that this is all about a loved one
And in that you would be right without a doubt
That you would know an angel dear is not in question
That you would feel them fall, that you’d hear them calling out
I cannot see and all around is darkness
I cannot feel and everything is numb
I cannot die my heart my body goes on beating
I turn to wood, I turn to fire, I turn to stone
When angels fall - I could say I’m lonely
When angels fall I could say I’m sad
It doesn’t take too much
To make tears in these eyes
Tears in these eyes
When angels fall - I could say I’m sorry
When angels fall I could say I’m sad
It doesn’t take too much
To make tears in these eyes
Tears in these eyes
When angels sing - I could say I’m happy
When angels sing I could say I’m glad
It doesn’t take too much
To make tears in these eyes
Tears in these eyes
Heaven moves, the sky above me keeps on turning
I cannot feel and everything is numb
I cannot die my heart my body keeps on yearning
I turn to wood, I turn to fire, I turn to stone
There are other people waiting at my station
Faces tell a tale of joy and grief
How they bear their fractured dreams and hidden meaning
And keep alive the hope that love would conquer all
When angels fall
