(Underneath) Wings of Destruction

As paths collide, out mental whiskers connect

We both fled the angels and the doom in their wake

With nowhere to hide, nowhere to run

Our differences aside, we can’t help moving forward

Slowly we drift towards each other, we share our fears

We face the other, eyes locked in their equal

Meanwhile the angels leave trails of ash

Closing in, ever circling, they’ll reach us

With wings of our own, we could escape

The forests engulfed by the fire from above

No storm ends their searching flight

But we both decided, to peel our wings off

There are those who guide the angels

Those who dare not take the skies themselves

And in the moment, the heavens are open

We have only ourselves and the little path we stand

As the crowds cheer for more angels to fly

The flames by our feet cannot match the heat in our hearts
