" Confessions Of A Demon Angel "...

When I first fell from grace I thought I'd abandon my wings, but darkness came
And I knew nothing at all, who was I,  I was changing to unmanaged hate
I still had my wings but my colors were turning gray into black
And I felt myself lusting for anything, everything, I needed to attack
Anything, everything, I wanted it all, I went on a demonic campaign
Using my wings, which seemed to work only at night
I crept into bedrooms and bar rooms destroying and creating such pain
I delighted in the suffering of all men I encountered each night
I took an old man and cut off his head and left it for his wife
Then flew through the night reeking of death and evil delight
Changing myself into women of the night so I could suck the blood
Of those I bargained with and then cheated them just the same
Leaving horrors everywhere I would go, 'til my memory came back
And I remembered the day the Lord took my goodness away
For fighting in heaven and causing the rape of an angel
My heart stopped working, I could no longer hate,
I could feel nothing not even the rage
I was haunted by heaven
Lost and forgotten
The Lord God had just thrown me away
Left me to roam in the darkness
To consider the good and the bad
And as the years tumble by
I think I know why
Perhaps he'll forgive me
Someday
Perhaps, he'll remember me
And so today
For the very first time
I accept my fate
I fall to mi knees
And I pray.......
