fallen angel - richard orpheus campbell lyrics
[intro]
i implore you hear my tale
before you give vent to your hatred
on my devoted head
i ask you have i not suffered enough
[verse 1]
at the dawn of my existence
my soul glowed with love and compassion
i reached out for my father
but you turned your back and left me for dead
i escaped into the moonlight, into the rain
pouring from the black and comfortless sky
[pre*chorus 1]
everywhere i’ve sought acceptance
i’ve been greeted by the cruelty of man
the wretched form that you have given to me
is all that they can see
[chorus]
how can i be blamed for the things that i have done
everything i suffered has led me to violence
and driven compassion from my mind
until this monster is all that’s left behind
[verse 2]
you accuse me of murder
and yet you would with a satisfied conscience
destroy your own creation
i should be thy adam but instead
i’ve become the fallen angel
driven from joy, banished for eternity
[pre*chorus 2]
everywhere i see the bliss
which i alone will be forever denied
the wretched form that you have given to me
condemns me to misery
[chorus]
how can i be blamed for the things that i have done
everything i’ve suffered has led me to violence
and driven compassion from my mind
and this monster is what’s left behind
[bridge]
but it is in your power to bring my rough to an end
do as i ask and let your conscience be cleansed
but if you refuse i will glut the maw of death
’til it is gorged on the blood of your remaining friends
loneliness fuels in me a burning desire
which you alone possess the means to satisfy
i am forsaken but one grotesque as i
would not deny herself to me
in exile, we would be united
and at last, i would meet with sympathy
[outro]
i swear by the sun
and the fire of the love that burns in my heart
that when you are done i will leave you in peace
but until you complete this creature for me
i will watch you from the shadows
