Welcome to Paradise

Angels have fallen.
In the desert
I saw them there
Lying bloodied and broken.
Among them I saw you.

Your eyes were closed
And your wings shattered.
I admired your skin
Made of alabaster,
And my heart wept

For I have lost
My wings long ago,
In the first war
When the Lightbringer
Raised his sword

You were my beloved then,
But you chose to stay
And sing hymns to Him
Who sat on the throne
While we were banished.

But now, you're banished as well.
So open your eyes,
And look at me
Take my hand and I'll show you
This paradise you've forsaken
