Angel
Edyta Bartosiewicz Lyrics

Dark, narrow streets, I still think of it
Despite the time that has passed, I still vividly remember this place with cramped, shadowy alleyways.

This place has no name, no mercy
The place she's thinking of is devoid of any identifiable features or compassion.

Big, peering eye, it looks down from the sky
She feels like there's an ominous force observing her from above which could also represent authority figures that instill fear in her.

But I am not sure, if it can see
She is uncertain that the ever-watching eye can truly comprehend the struggles she's going through.

And if you protest, they will burn you alive
Speaking out against the powers that be will lead to severe consequences such as public execution.

Oh, how does it feel to be really free?
The notion of true freedom is inconceivable in such a repressive environment.

Well, I could be deaf, and I could be blind, too
Even if she were to lose her senses, her feelings wouldn't change.

But still I have my feelings left
Her emotional state is the only thing that gives her any sense of identity and humanity.

I'm looking for angel
She's searching for someone to help her, someone who embodies compassion.

Tender & sincere
The angel she's after must be gentle and genuine in character.

Someone who'd save me
She needs help, a savior from this oppressive and unbearable situation.

In these darkest days
Her current situation is unrelenting and difficult.

I hate this nameless place
She has an intense aversion to this place which has no worth or meaning.

Maybe there's still some emotion
She acknowledges that there might still be some feelings left in her despite everything that she's been through.

But surely there is no respect
However, she's certain that there is no dignity or respect for human life in this environment.

Oh, I won't complain & I won't despair
Complaining and giving in to hopelessness won't solve anything and will only weaken her will.

I just don't wanna go through all that again
She doesn't want to endure the same trials and tribulations that she's already experienced again.

Is this so hard to understand?!
She's surprised that people can't empathize or even understand the reality of her situation.

Is this so hard to realize?!
She's frustrated that others can't seem to see the same things that she does.

I'm not listening to what they say
She's shutting out the noise and propaganda of those in power.

'Cause I don't care, I don't care no more!
She's reached a point where she no longer cares or gives any value to their words.

They love to talk about the truth
Those in power pretend to care about the truth but are actually just manipulating it to their own advantage.

Then they watch you & control you
With the aid of their power, they are able to surveil and dominate the people.

Doing things that are not fair
Their actions are far from being moral or just, instead being absolutely unfair and unjust.

I don't care, I don't care - no more!
She's hit her limit and feels numb to their deceitful actions.

I wish I could get out of this nameless place!
She is desperate to escape the nameless place that is consuming her life and identity.
