[Verse 1: Tobias Sammet]
A sweet embrace in a distant dream
Where did I take a wrong turn?
From up close to far away

A crowded room
Yet a lonely cave
I stare at those names
In chalk hearts they had scrawled
Before the rain

Shivering afraid of the rain
That might wash away
The heart that I'd paint around a name
And leave an empty spot inside my soul

[Pre-Chorus: Tobias Sammet]
And I won't contemplate it
I'd have fought the devil to be
The one that you need
Now I'm giving myself
I'm all his if he still wants me

[Chorus: Tobias Sammet]
He can take mе away
I'm misplaced among the angels
Savе me, I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
That frail veneer of reason
Bleeding away
Misplaced among the angels
I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The dark beneath the frail veneer of reason

[Verse 2: Floor Jansen]
A lonely night in a busy place
Aren't we all reaching out through a veil
Trying to scream yet unbearably mute
Different worlds, same old moon
We all seem to cry for in vain
In a cold world too real for us to subdue

[Pre-Chorus: Floor Jansen]
Never been a stranger to pain
We got to restrain
Blessed is the night
Mr. Moon, if you're out there

[Chorus: Floor Jansen & Tobias Sammet]
Take me away
Misplaced among the angels
Save me, I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The frail veneer of beauty
Bleeding away
Misplaced among the angels
I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The dark beneath the frail veneer of beauty

[Guitar Solo: Sascha Paeth]

[Pre-Chorus: Floor Jansen & Tobias Sammet]
A sweet embrace, a dying dream
Craving lit up by belief
At the side of angels - dead in need

[Chorus: Floor Jansen & Tobias Sammet]
Take me away
Misplaced among the angels
Save me, I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The frail veneer of reason

Bleeding away
Misplaced among the angels
I'm in need of you
When real life bleeds through
The dark beneath the frail veneer of beauty
[Outro: Tobias Sammet]
Misplaced among the angels
Misplaced among the angels
Misplaced among the angels
