Analysis of Fallen Angel



Blessed be the fallen angel,
swirling to the ground.
Blessed be the fallen angel,
she's the one he's found.
Blessed be the fallen angel,
he clasps her to his breast.
Blessed be the fallen angel,
crying while she rests.
Blessed be the fallen angel,
who's dying deep inside.
Blessed be the fallen angel,
no room on earth to hide.
