🎧 Fear the Angels 2

[Verse 1] Don’t fear me I don’t bite like they do Hands in the dirt Let it cling like truth Fear the angels Teeth cut out of white rules Smiles like stained glass Cold and see-through [Pre-Chorus] (new – gives lift into chorus) Say your sins slow Let them write you down Feel the silence When they turn the crowd [Chorus] Fear the angels Fear the holy stare Fear the words that mark you guilty For the skin you wear Don’t fear my fire I’m already below Fear the ones who call it mercy While they steal your soul [Verse 2] Fear the way they flinch at breath and skin Like your pulse is wrong Like your bones confess a deeper sin Just for being born Fear the velvet tightening your throat When they call it love Feel the hand that rests upon your head Push you just enough [Pre-Chorus] Kneel in quiet Let them shape your name Feel their fingers Rewrite what you became [Chorus] Fear the angels Fear the holy stare Fear the words that mark you guilty For the skin you wear Don’t fear my fire I’m already below Fear the ones who call it mercy While they steal your soul [Bridge] (your strongest idea, enhanced not replaced) Fear the quiet After you confess Fear the way their love Feels like a net Soft and sacred Til it pulls you in Til you thank the hand That taught you sin [Final Chorus] (slight evolution for payoff) Fear the angels Fear the velvet rope Fear the way they drain your blood Into borrowed hope Don’t fear my shadow I already let go Fear the smile that says “I saved you” While it steals your soul
