Lyrics

Album version

An angel's life
Will never lead you
Not what it seems
But I see right through

Remember smiles
That run across you
And cut your face
Right in two

So you take mine
And I'll take yours, too
Like butterflies
On the chins of fools

You said ignite
But in the rearview
We'd set the fires
We crash into

Now we're going to rage
For love and for the hate
Angels of the night
Reach out and take forever

And when we've gone away
The light will still remain
Angels never die
This is now, this is forever

We come alive
In the dark tunes
That children sing
From beneath you

The cast aside
The ones no one knew
On heaven's side
In a landslide

Now we're going to rage
For love and for the hate
Angels of the night
Reach out and take forever

And when we've gone away
The light will still remain
Angels never die
This is now, this is forever

And when we've gone away
The light will still remain
Angels never die
This is now, this is forever

Now we're going to rage
For love and for the hate
Angels of the night
Reach out and take forever

And when we've gone away
The light will still remain
Angels never die
This is now, this is forever
