Desperate measures lead to death 
From the mouth of Gabriel 
Who died in his sleep when the world was a very big mess 
A very big mess; he saw too much 
From now on I will look away from every accident 
That may or may not come my way 

Saw you were talking up above the Aleph room 
Masquerading as a loom 
Both of us saw things 
No one else would see as well 
From the mouth of Gabriel 
No one else would hear as well 
From the mouth of Gabriel, etc. 

Don’t be so sure of what you feel (it might as well be trouble) 
From now on just let the universe be your shelter from the enemy 

Your face has changed 
I hardly know who you are this time 
And what a mess I’ve made of you 
You probably would but I won’t let you run away 
You probably should but I won’t let you run away this time 

Don’t be afraid of loneliness some refugee beside itself 
Instead of what you’ve got 
You probably would but I won’t let you go away 
You probably should but I won’t let you go away this time 

Your face has changed 
I hardly know who you are this time 
And when I came into your room 
You tried to jump 

Now I know this is strange to hear from the mouth of God 
It was something like a scene from mars 
In a struggle between loves and lies 
The angel kept his face covered for to keep his word 
And while I spoke something left from my life 
Forget about the past 
Be at rest I’ll make things right 
And while I held you at best you nearly died 
Forget about the past 
And I’ll try to make things right
