Riot - Wings Are For Angels Lyrics






If I leave I'll be dead by morning,
If I stay it's all the same.
Insane from a thousand sorrows,
What's my name again? I don't know...

Past the graves of a million dreams,
Swallow all & fade away.
What I do or I don't it seems,
Damned all anyway, damned to hell.

They called me a fool for my choice of career.
I'm the winds of war that will blow you away,
Sure as I'm standing here.

Wings are for angels, wings are for angels.

Try to breathe in this ancient wonder,
Golden days of history.
On spinning blades I'm the god of thunder.
What's my name again? That will do...

Flyboys, they get all the glory,
Working men get what remains.
Lost my soul when I sold my story.
Here I go again, yes I know...

They called me a fool for my choice of career.
I'm the winds of war that will blow you away,
Sure as I'm standing here.

Wings are for angels, wings are for angels.

Kill your brother if Allah tells you,
I will kill what else remains,
For the money my country gave me.
What's my name again - now you know!

Once more to the fields of glory,
Damn the clouds & burn the sky.
Lost my soul when I sold my story.
Here we go again, yes I know...

I lost all my friends and I lost all my fear.
Nothing left to die for, they told me today,
I'm staying another year...

    Mark Reale 🎸👑 Forever!

  2. S.... P....

    Se me ne vado, sarò morto entro la mattina, se rimango è lo stesso,
    impazzito per colpa di mille dolori, qual è il mio nome? Non lo so...
    Dopo la sepoltura di un milione di sogni, ingoia tutto e svanisci,
    quello che faccio o non faccio, sembra comunque dannato, condannato all'inferno.
    Mi hanno definito un pazzo per la mia scelta di carriera,
    io sono i venti della guerra che ti spazzeranno via,
    è per questo che sto qui!
    Le ali sono per gli angeli, le ali sono per gli angeli!
    Cerca di respirare questa antica meraviglia, i giorni d'oro della storia,
    su lame rotanti io sono il dio del tuono, qual è il mio nome? Questo funzionerà...
    Gli eroi si prendono tutta la gloria, gli uomini che lavorano ottengono ciò che rimane,
    ho perso la mia anima quando ho venduto la mia storia.
    Eccomi di nuovo, sì lo so:
    mi chiamano pazzo per la mia scelta di carriera
    io soono i venti della guerra che ti spazzeranno via,
    certo che sto qui!
    Le ali sono per gli angeli, le ali sono per gli angeli!
    Uccidi tuo fratello se Allah te lo dice, io ucciderò cos'altro rimarrà,
    per i soldi che mi ha dato il mio paese, qual è il mio nome? Ora lo sai!
    Ancora una volta nei campi di gloria, maledico le nuvole e brucio il cielo,
    ho perso la mia anima quando ho venduto la mia storia.
    Eccoci di nuovo, sì lo so:
    ho perso tutti i miei amici e ho perso tutta la mia paura,
    nulla è rimasto per cui morire, mi hanno detto oggi.
    Resterò un altro anno ...
    Le ali sono per gli angeli, le ali sono per gli angeli!

    Penso che non abbia bisogno di commenti. Descrive e tristemente predice la storia e la fine di Mark Reale.
    I think this lyric doesn't need any comment. It describes and sadly forseens the story and the epilogue of Mark Reale.

  3. A.... P....

    Just when my dream came true, it shattered right back again... RIP Mark Reale...

  15. M.... ....

    Mark is 56 when this album came out right? i mean.. unbelievable. How old is Bobby? Dang but they can still play like this at their age.. i mean.. Passion can drive us to unbelievable heights.

  16. t.... ....

    i was saddened to read of the passing of Mark,i discovered Riot sort of by accident
    i borrowed the tape"thundersteel" from my old roommate,and it never left my tapedeck for almost a year and a half.he is/was a huge influence to my guitar playing and its funny,i had a black les paul black beauty exactly like his before listening to them for the 1st time.

  17. G.... S....

    Bring back the line-up of 1988, bring back the sound of 1988! Reale's last contribution to Riot was the greatest one. Rest In Peace, metal Brother

  18. M.... ....

    Love Riot, they've always been a great band and always had great lead singers.

  19. S.... S....

    the best!!! :)

  20. T.... W....

    along with Guy Speranza <3

  21. B.... ....

    He has, maybe.

  22. R.... S....

    It sukks that we'll never hear a Mark Reale riff again!!!! he was a God!!! Can we please keep some of the good ones here on earth? Fukk!!

  23. A.... S....

    What a voice, eh?

  24. e.... ....

    With not only super-high-pitch, but also song-writing-skill, Tony Moore-era is Riot's best years, I suppose.
    A little bit 'boy soprano' like. Though, very fit for heavy metal sound. Geoff Tate cannot sing previous lines, but Moore can sing previous lines forever.

  25. R.... ....

    Helevetin kova !

  26. w.... ....

    intro blows my face away

  27. S.... ....

    best album for 2011 and not only,,...
