Biography:
Angels of Light are an experimental group that was formed circa 1998 by singer/guitarist Michael Gira after he disbanded Swans, the group he'd founded in 1982. The band has marked a distinctly different style for Gira since he left Swans, most noticeably being musically more melodic and less brutal than his previous efforts. The Angels of Light include many New York City collaborators, including Dana Schechter of Bee and Flower, Kid Congo Powers of The Cramps

[Verse 1]
A C#m
When the warm wind blows
D C#m
Through the corridors and tiled walls
A C#m
There you are
D C#m
The mad guardian of your empty room
A C#m
Your memories were tortured
D C#m
By the scent of ocean through the halls -
A C#m
And where was I
D C#m
The one that you loved best?

Now show me how
C#m
To hold the knife that cuts the page
A
To crucify the weakness
C#m E A
And the guilt I use for faking strength

Now I remember
D C#m
I crawled naked across the broken stage
A
And there was I
The child that brought us shame

So walk across
D A
The blood red ocean
C#m
Stand above
D A
The broken glass and concrete towers
And here I sleep
D A
Some guardian of my empty room
Now I've become the child
C#m
That neither of us knew
[Interlude 3]
