Verse 1:
Send the soldiers
Marching in.
Hear the battle
Drums begin.
Build a fortress
All around.
Angels spread their wings
And guard the battleground.
Chorus:
Soldiers and angels
Halos in the dark.
Monsters and strangers
Always leave their mark.
Barbed wire, and gunfire
Blows the pain apart.
Sheltering wings and golden rings.
Soldiers and guardian angels
In a broken heart. [<~~~1st and 2nd times.]
In an open heart. [<~~~3rd time]
Verse 2:
Watch the angels
Cast a spell.
Take the wounded
Make them well.
Shield your feelings
With barricades.
Sentries stand their ground
Behind the cavalcades.
-Chorus-
-Solo-
-Chorus 2-

Very atmospheric, almost ethereal.
I liked the drum and percussion parts (the military-type snare rolls etc), and the added effects with the voices - a nice touch. I also thought it was extremely well recorded, the whole mix is crystal clear.

You create a very good atmosphere from the start. I like the build too...The lyrics up front make sense to me...all arrangements are very congruent with your subject...
