Have you had your death today
And felt the loneliness of what you can't explain?
Have you had your death today
And resurrected joy from the jaws of pain?

As a dark angelcalls my name
I won't answer (loneliness)
Arid landscapes call for me to be the desert cancer

Have you had your resurrection
And seen old opinions formed swept away?
Have you had you soul baptism on a ragged flame
And felt the loss of shame and seen the world had changed?

As a dark angel calls my name
I won't answer (loneliness)
Arid landscapes call for me to be the desert cancer
As a dark angel calls my name
I won't answer (loneliness)
Arid landscapes call for me to be the desert cancer

Have you had your death today
And crossed the line in the sand?
You know the middle ground is wasted land

As a dark angel calls my name
The state of my soul is my concern (surrender)
You see the more I sparkle the less I burn
(Sacrifice) as a dark angel calls my name
I won't answer (loneliness)
Arid landscapes call for me to be the desert cancer

If I were a little less stupid
And a little less greedy
Maybe I wouldn't be so needy
But there's always faith and hope

The dark angel calls my name

But I won't answer
I WON'T ANSWER!
