Empathy for the Archangel

from Society Blinds the Willing by Michael Psycho

/

lyrics

Please don’t ask for my help
You’ve been far too long astray
If you walk that beaten path
I won’t get in your way
I’ve been shunned for many years
No pleasure you could gain
You made me love my solitude
Now kindly stay away

Don’t pretend to understand about me
You don’t know my name

This planet was once paradise
It looked just fine to me
But for some reason people came
And couldn’t let it be
You did just what you wanted
Disregarded right or wrong
The fallen angel’s “might is right”
Done dragged you right along

You’d think I’d feel resentment
But that’s simply not the case
I’ve seen way too much bad behavior
By the human race
I won’t protect your interests
And I won’t defend your crimes
I won’t try to engage with you
It’s just a waste of time

I’ll never try to tempt you
That’s for someone else to do
You’re probably under that control
Perhaps without a clue
You’ll see me at your deathbed
Psychopomp that is my job
With your last breath, you’ll feel regret
Might feel like you’ve been robbed
