Angels in the Attic

Fascination takes its toll on the memory
When intuition plays the roll of the enemy
We should know by now it was no saving grace

That caught us up in the moment of obscurity
We’ve been known to blindside security
And look the devil right square in his handsome face

There are angels in the attic and demons on the doorstep
Whispering lies to the other side
There’s a battle in the air and it’s nowhere far from here
We know there is nowhere to hide

All the villains and the heroines are dancing there
Where the lion and the lamb are a handsome pair
All we see for now is the end of the line

Where the fear has left us in the alleyway
We see the night as bright as the light of day
And no one is trapped there by their fatal mind

That’s the day we’ll know the face of
All we’ve known as saving grace
Will faith or religion set us free?

There are angels in the attic and demons on the doorstep
Whispering lies to the other side
There’s a battle in the air and it’s nowhere far from here
We know there is nowhere to hide
