When Poets Dreamed Of Angels LYRICS |

She rises early from bed
Runs to the mirror
He kneels beside her once more
The bruises inflicted in moments of fury
"Next time I'll break every bone in your body"
Whistpers a promise
And if the river ran dry they'd deny it happening
As the cardplayers deal their hands
And the well-wishers let the devil in
From the bottom of the deck
Row upon row of feudal houses blow away
Medicine for the popular complaint
When the poets dreamed of angels
What did they see?
History lined up in a flash at their backs
When the poets dreamed of angels
The bishops and knights well placed to attackWhat did they see?
