our wings are burning

uzun versiyonunun sonundaki solosuyla ve "on the crest of fire" girişiyle tehlikeli şarkılar kategorisine giren bir virgin black şarkısı.

we fall in love with dust in our lids
and the pain of a severed soul
we lowered our heads and lifted our face
placed our bodies in celebration
on the lips of a mutilated man
i carry the bones of a deformed child
and my own polluted breath
i speak the old man's words in a persuasive eloquence
bless the dust that hides this unlamented head

on the crest of fire
our wings are burning

how glorious the pain
and the ways of god
shriek out of tune
all is lost but hope
on the crest of fire
our wings are burning to the wind's anthem

all is lost but hope
