Angel
Era Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quit saying you're alone and lie with me here
The night's falling down around us, so tell me that you're near
The blood wants to run tonight, don't let it have its wish
Just lie down, this time around
Give me my angels kiss

So please come and tell me what it's like to fear
With everyone and everything forging you your tears
Love died in absolution, so tell me it's alright
It's not alright. It's not alright

But you're so pretty, but you''l never, ever heal
No matter what they tell you, darling, I'll always be here
When you found me dead up in the clouds, your choir saved my life
Baby, watch me come alive and I'll show you how we die

You drive too fast for me
We don't want anyone to know what it's like to be free
But I found freedom drunken on the floor
It was ours until someone had to lock the fucking door

As we wash the blood from your scarlet catharsis
Locked inside your head
We'll suffer forever in dawn eternal, and lost within your bed
Well, sometimes I feel like I'm just a burden
And most of the time, I just wish I was dead




But nothing short of this silent sunset
Has made me feel this bad

Line by Line Meaning

Quit saying you're alone and lie with me here
Stop pretending you're alone when I'm here with you


The night's falling down around us, so tell me that you're near
As the night falls, reassure me that you're here with me


The blood wants to run tonight, don't let it have its wish
You're feeling restless and maybe even violent, but don't act on it


Just lie down, this time around
Just relax and let go for once


Give me my angels kiss
Show me some tenderness and affection


So please come and tell me what it's like to fear
Share with me your fears and worries


With everyone and everything forging you your tears
You feel like everyone and everything around you is causing your emotional pain


Love died in absolution, so tell me it's alright
You feel like love has abandoned you, but you're trying to pretend it's okay


It's not alright. It's not alright
Admitting that things are not okay


But you're so pretty, but you'll never, ever heal
You're beautiful, but your emotional scars may never fully heal


No matter what they tell you, darling, I'll always be here
I'll always be here for you, even if others tell you otherwise


When you found me dead up in the clouds, your choir saved my life
Your love and support helped me through a difficult time


Baby, watch me come alive and I'll show you how we die
When I feel alive, I want to live life to its fullest, even knowing that death is always looming


You drive too fast for me
Your behavior makes me nervous


We don't want anyone to know what it's like to be free
We're afraid of being truly free and letting go of our fears and doubts


But I found freedom drunken on the floor
I found a fleeting sense of freedom when I was reckless and careless


It was ours until someone had to lock the fucking door
Our freedom was taken away from us by someone else's actions


As we wash the blood from your scarlet catharsis
We're trying to heal and overcome your emotional pain and suffering


Locked inside your head
You feel trapped by your own thoughts and emotions


We'll suffer forever in dawn eternal, and lost within your bed
Our pain and suffering will never fully go away, and we'll always feel lost and alone


Well, sometimes I feel like I'm just a burden
I worry that I'm imposing on you and causing you more pain


And most of the time, I just wish I was dead
I struggle with suicidal thoughts and feel like I don't deserve to live


But nothing short of this silent sunset
Only the beauty and peacefulness of a sunset can make me feel truly at ease


Has made me feel this bad
Everything else in life is making me feel worse than this moment right now
