Angels & Vampires

She scribbles his order down
To the beat of espresso machines
Adjusts her peroxide crown
Retracts her diaphanous wings
She’s obsessive and manic depressive
Carmilla hates what she’s become
Gabe looks in her stained-glass eyes
And sings his celestial refrain
Peeks through his own disguise
And gives her a chance to explain
Her defection and lack of reflection
Gabriel waits through the night
And he said that Angels and Vampires hide behind their wings
He said that Angels and Vampires hide behind their wings
They enter the cold night air
And head south on Patterson street
Climb up the cathedral stairs
Propelled by the blood and caffeine
Then he mentions he offers redemption
Carmilla can’t make up her mind
And he said that Angels and Vampires hide behind their wings
He said that Angels and Vampires hide behind their wings
