Better Angels
© 2017 Caroline Ferrante & Austin Bello, all rights reserved

You say I’m the Devil
You’re a Savior to me
The demons you wrestled
Stayed offa me
Now you’re climbing Jacob’s Ladder
Cuz’ you drank the pain too deep
Better angels set you free

Better angels, better angels set you free
No guardian wings were there for our release
I know that what he did to you is what he did to me
I pray Better angels set you free
I pray Better angels set you free


I hear footsteps on the floor
As punishment
Dunno what for
I try and try to be just right
I never find relief
He used to worship you & now he preys on me


Mama’s preaching this scripted destiny
Etched deep into the bark
Of her ancient apple tree
Keeps rocking in her chair & doesn’t wanna see
Could it be these cowards
Are Afraid to face the Beast

Some mornings
The water is so clear
Deep things within my grasp
Answers are so near
Truth is like a steel
Wind upon my cheek
I pray better angels set you free
I pray better angels set you free
I pray better angels set you free
