Seventh Wonder - The Angelmaker lyrics

rate me

nother star on the night sky

A set of white wings to fly

And travel to a holy land

Another coin to crown my hand

Over a tiny angel to be

Playing on the clouds eternally

-You're such a little snake

Little snake sister

Squeeze and brake

Twist and shake

Hurry before the sleepy ones awake

-Ofelia my darling, don't you give in

To the echoes within

Ofelia queen of heartache and sorrow

Carving nightmares out of dreams

You can scream as you go

No one will ever know

I'm saving you from the pain of tomorrow

And pray you'll find a halo where you go

I thank you mothers for the children left behind

And all the money I can carry,

This life may treat me kind

Heartbeats

Such a sweet little sound

Small feet

Won't touch the ground

The maker of angels leads the way

From the cradle to the grave

And how she sings that lullaby

Straight from her stone

-Into the light alone

Sister you will go to hell

And so you might as well

Stay in the shadows working

You know I won't tell

Avoid getting your soul signed

You should get away

Get away from the one

Who is playing with your mind

Ofelia queen of heartache and sorrow

Carving nightmares out of dreams

You can scream as you go

No one will ever know

I'm saving you from the pain of tomorrow

And pray you'll find a halo where you go

I thank you mothers for the children left behind

And all the money I can carry,

This life may treat me kind

So neat

Every finger and toe

Small feet

Will never grow

The maker of angels leads the way

From the cradle to the grave

And how she sings that lullaby

Straight from her stone

-Into the light alone

How come these foul accusations?

He made me save them from tears

Singing my lullaby

I've had my heart and soul controlled by

The raven

And for the crime he should be

Send to live beneath instead of me

Order in the court

She has denied

And now the jury will decide

To what extent

This Angelmaker lied

Goodnight Ofelia! By the rope you will hang for

Carving nightmares out of dreams

We will feed on your fear

No one will she'd a tear

Ofelia you won't see tomorrow

And black is the shame in your eyes as you go

I damn you mothers for the children left behind

And all the guilt I have to carry

Life did not treat me kind

The maker of angels leads the way

From the cradle to the grave

And how she sings that song

Straight from her stone

-Into the light alone
