Black angel, white angel Kneel down and lick from the razor Dark angel, light angel Come down and lay in the danger Black angel, white angel Kneel down and lick from the razor Dark angel, light angel You're lost your way among the fray The blackest days are waiting up ahead Blazing skulls The burning children know it's all a game Would you die in pain or would feed the maelstrom? Would you offer up the necessary soul? Black angel, white angel Kneel down and lick from the razor Dark angel, light angel Come down and lay in the danger Black angel, white angel Kneel down and lick from the razor Dark angel, light angel Would you lie in wait or would you kill your brother? Would you offer out your hand and unleash the dagger? Black angel, white angel Kneel down and lick from the razor Dark angel, light angel Come down and lay in the danger Black angel, white angel Kneel down and lick from the razor Dark angel, light angel Black angel, white angel Dark angel, light angel Black angel, white angel Dark angel, light angel ============================================================================= All songs written by Glenn Danzig.
