Drinking To The Angel Of The East Lyrics

We invite you fair angel of the east
To share our feast of love without decree
There will be grins and everlasting wine
Commending the progression of decline

Drain thy cup at the carnival of truth
And recognize the advent of the new

Convey the torch illustrious of light
Revoking all the indignities of time
Sounding laughter answers to our call
Succeeded by a dawn of rising fall

Fill thy cup at the carnival of truth
And recognize the advent of the new

A crescent moon extends throughout the sky
Collecting all the angels falling down
Raging winds embrace the willow trees
Drinking to the angel of the east

Raise thy cup at the carnival of truth
And recognize the advent of the new

Seize the rain that falls onto earth
Sustaining this, our banquet of rebirth
Let's dance again through pyres of delight
As Venus bright illuminates the night

Drain thy cup at the carnival of truth
And recognize the advent of the new
