Climb the long stairs to the thin air
Over clouds and past the moon
Don't look down there, leave your long prayers
There is no one here but you

Oh my, an angel
If we are brave enough, ooh
She'll take our anger up
Oh my, an angel
I've waited long enough, ooh
The mountain opened up

As the blood pours down your shoulders
As the lake comes up to you
Beaming terror like a mirror
From the water how you flew

(Head over the collarbone
Sun over the horizon
When you broke how it shone
Head over the horizon)

Oh my, an angel
If we are brave enough, ooh
She'll take our anger up
Oh my, an angel
I've waited long enough, ooh
The mountain opened up

(Do you think that you could ever fly
In the twinkling of your burning eye
To the forest of your fervent youth
Where began the end of all we knew?)

Oh my, an angel
If we are brave enough
She'll take our anger up
Oh my, an angel
I've waited long enough
The mountain opened up
