Angel of the Highest Room

[Intro] [Choir] Lux superna, porta caelorum Vox angelorum, custodi nos [Verse 1] Beneath the vault where the old bells sleep You draw a circle the stones can keep White feathers turn in the altar air A vow is rising from everywhere [Pre-Chorus] You lift your hand, and the iron doors divide A thousand silent wings unfold inside [Chorus] Angel of the highest room Carry us beyond the bloom Through the gate of ash and gold Guard the names we cannot hold Majesty in living flame Call each broken heart by name When the final skies descend Be our shelter, be our friend [Verse 2] The choir loft remembers your breath A silver thread through the mouth of death Candles lean toward the painted glass You speak one word, and the years all pass [Progressive Interlude] [Choir] Sancta lux, anima mea Rise through the stone, rise through the stone [Bridge] I have carried the weight of the crown I have knelt where the lost fall down If your wings still open for me Take this fear to the edge of the sea [Final Chorus] Angel of the highest room Carry us beyond the bloom Through the gate of ash and gold Guard the names we cannot hold Majesty in living flame Call each broken heart by name When the final skies descend Be our shelter, be our friend [Outro] [Choir] Lux superna, porta caelorum Vox angelorum, custodi nos Custodi nos
