Better Angels

Someday you walk amidst the ruins
And you see only through your tears
Those days the choices aren′t easy

When you're paralyzed by fear
Paralyzed by fear
Sometimes you can almost hear their whisper
And the faintest flutter of their wings
Somehow you know they′ll be there hiding
In the silence of all things
In the silence of all things

Seek your better angels
In the frenzy of the day
Choose your better angels
You've got to find the way
Discern your higher nature
In the uncertain and the dark
It's a hidden treasure buried deep down in your heart

Some days we′re drowning in desire
Wrestling in the ocean of our needs
But sometimes with their silent presence
They may take the lead
They make take the lead

Just seek your better angels
In the frenzy of the day
Choose your better angels
You′ve got to find the way
Discern your higher nature
In the uncertain and the dark
It's a hidden treasure buried deep down in your heart

Seek your better angels
You′ve got to find the way
Discern your higher nature in your heart
Sometimes we just need
To get our hearts broken
To pry our hearts open
