A moment's weakness, a blow that landed too hard She lay there resting on the sauna boards While I sat eating my sauna sausage Then from the corner of my eye, I saw the flames ignite She was taken to a better place, out of the dark and light I was left behind to face the blame And see my charcoal-black angel take to flight Gliding silently over this broken man's plight I see my charcoal-black angel smiling down On this forgotten man, in this forgotten town I'm a lone wolf who's searching for the pack A fragile swan that blooms from a stone so black I'm a victim too, caught in this endless strife The winter frost will claim a garden gnome's life I understand the way this cruel world can be But the men in charge will never understand me I gave my everything, my sweat and my own hand Yet they took my home, my job, and all my land... My feet are walking on the road to hell But I raise my eyes to where the angels dwell... I see my charcoal-black angel smiling down On this forgotten man, in this forgotten town I'm a lone wolf who's searching for the pack A fragile swan that blooms from a stone so black I'm a victim too, caught in this endless strife The winter frost will claim a garden gnome's life
