The Lens

歌詞

An angel enters in a skull in her hand Casket for a purse hoping to reverse Scars that life can leave hidden up her sleave Performs a silent mass to purify the past This blackened heart wears virgin white Oppression lit by candlelight But then you change before my eyes I see your face as I am looking through the lens No more disgrace as I am looking through the lens An angel sits alone, awaiting kodachrome Striking dark facade to pose for for other gods Take off the mask that hides the fears Those nightmares of abusive years And then you change before my eyes I see your face as I am looking through the lens No more disgrace as I am looking through the lens I see beyond the painted walls of your defense I see your face as I am looking through the lens An angel for a day, she turns to fly away Removes the wedding gown, there'll be no hiding now And then you'll change before my eyes
