story behind the song: a debate about cherubs and cupids and seraphim and ... combining the ages of reflection on the subject. blame google lol
Lyrics
they were sitting like angels down on their knees
wings slightly folded in that do what we please
look that has lasted throughout the ages
"we're better than you, look how god made us"
their eyes were a glitter as fresh fallen snow
waiting and watching for the time to grow slow
the moment before midnight, the second of thought
in between chaos and the world that god wrought
they moved in accord with the wind and the waves
possessing the wit and and the rights to the grace
of those who smiled down in heavenly sighs
in the pleasure of knowing those eternal highs
they laughed as they danced, as desire never could
the charm of their spells and the chants of the good
like the faeries of old and the drones of the new
delivering love where ever its due
