I saw an angel in 1986
in the middle of December
just what the hell the exact date
was
I can't quite remember
I had seen that girl many times
before that particular day
but ever since then I've never seen
her in quite the same way
I was sitting to the side of the
room
and I was falling into a daze
the room started to look distorted
and engulfed in a haze
I looked around, noticed people's
heads
they seemed to glow
I glanced at her and could vaguely
make out a faint halo
and then much stronger than her
halo
her wings appeared
I wonder why this never alarmed
me
this was getting pretty weird
if only you'd open your eyes
then maybe you'd realize
everything that you omitted
to get the message that you wanted
you could interpret the opposite
way
if you didn't forget all you saw
that day
not bright enough to control your
own life
so you turn to fate to set things
right
what you saw in your hallucination
doesn't necessarily mean a thing
but if this was the inspiration
you needed
why the hell was it nothing?
