The angels' share

The secrets of the universe

Is seldom fair

Hardly blessing, hardly curse



All those things we cannot know

We dream, we hypothesize

Maybe these are secrets shared by those

Watching from the sky



If we are only members of the human race

No supernatural beings from a supernatural place

If you can solve the problem, come and tell me to my face



The angels' share

In all the human mysteries

There is no prayer

To the thieves of celestial history



The myth of perfect wisdom

We forget it at birth

It's a kind of clandestine conspiracy

A seraphin joke of eternity



If we are only members of the human race

No supernatural beings from a supernatural place

If you can solve the problem, come and tell me to my face



All those things we cannot know

We dream, we hypothesize

Maybe these are secrets shared by those

Watching from the skies



If we are only members of the human race

No supernatural beings from a supernatural place

If you can solve the problem, come and tell me to my face



If we are only members of the human race

No supernatural beings from a supernatural place

If you can solve the problem, come and tell me to my face
