Alas My Love lyrics

"Alas my love, you say goodbye

Wipe the poison from my brow

Alas my love, this guilty night

It gives me up like a foster child

And in this moment I take my vow

These angels sleeping at my feet

And in this moment you do not know how

How my spirit wants to flee"

You see it was one man against the night

Taking on a multitude

That had left Him high and dry

No candle burning vigil could light the way

Darkness hit the ground like a fallen satellite

He wrestled until morning

With human souls and dark angels

And there He finished His work

On the third day
