[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Climb the long stairs to the thin air

Over clouds and past the moon

Don't look down there, leave your long prayers

There is no one here but you

[Chorus]

Oh my, an angel

If we are brave enough, oh

She'll take my anger up

Oh my, an angel

I've waited long enough, oh

The mountain opened up

[Verse 2]

As the blood pours down your shoulders

As the lake comes up to you

Beaming terror like a mirror

From the water how you flew

[Bridge]

Head over the collarbone

Sun over the horizon

When you broke, how it shone

Head over the horizon

[Chorus]

Oh my, an angel

If we are brave enough, oh

She'll take my anger up

Oh my, an angel

I've waited long enough, oh

The mountain opened up

[Post-Chorus]

(Oh my, an angel)

[Bridge]

Do you think that you could ever fly

In the twinkling of your burning eye

To the forest of your fervent youth

Where began the end of all we knew?

[Chorus]

Oh my, an angel

If we are brave enough (Oh)

She'll take my anger up

Oh my, an angel

I've waited long enough (Oh)

The mountain opened up

[Outro]

(Oh, oh)
