[Verse 1]
The angel came to Jacob
The room began to glow
Jacob asked the angel
"Are you friend or are you foe?"
[Verse 2]
The angel never answered
Smote him on the thigh
They wrestled through the darkness
'Til morning filled the sky
[Chorus]
This thing between us has wings, it has teeth
It has got horns and feathers and sinews beneath
Angel or demon, to the truth I am bound
And so this thing between us must be wrestled down
[Verse 3]
Jacob held on to the angel
Who turned to fly and to flee
He said, "I must have your blessing
Before I let you leave me"
[Bridge]
Angel never answered
But smote him on the thigh
They wrestled through the darkness
'Til morning filled the sky
And in the light
He knew his other name
As he struggled and surrendered
To the next part of the game
The angel came to Jacob
The room began to glow
Jacob asked the angel
"Are you friend or are you foe?"
[Verse 2]
The angel never answered
Smote him on the thigh
They wrestled through the darkness
'Til morning filled the sky
[Chorus]
This thing between us has wings, it has teeth
It has got horns and feathers and sinews beneath
Angel or demon, to the truth I am bound
And so this thing between us must be wrestled down
[Verse 3]
Jacob held on to the angel
Who turned to fly and to flee
He said, "I must have your blessing
Before I let you leave me"
[Bridge]
Angel never answered
But smote him on the thigh
They wrestled through the darkness
'Til morning filled the sky
And in the light
He knew his other name
As he struggled and surrendered
To the next part of the game
