Concrete Angel
Gareth Emery Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me breath you in, and breath the words in your mouth
Inside your shivering, the silence shouts so loud
I just want to, I just want to stay around
And while my heart beats I promise I won't let you dow

If I'm somewhere else it doesn't mean that I don't see
That you don't trust yourself, that's why you don't trust me
It makes me crazy, when you're crazy, you don't speak
You think you know me, but what you know is just skin deep

If you keep building these walls
Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all
Till the concrete angel falls
I knew who you were from the start
But now I don't know who you are
Soon there will be nothing at all
Till the concrete angel falls

If you keep building these walls
Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all
Till the concrete angel falls
I knew who you were from the start
But now I don't know who you are




Soon there will be nothing at all
Till the concrete angel falls

Overall Meaning

The song Concrete Angel by Gareth Emery is a powerful ballad that speaks about a person's inner turmoil and the struggle to let go of emotional barriers. The first verse talks about how the persona wants to be close to their loved one and understand what they are feeling. The second verse, however, highlights the struggle that stems from the lack of trust in a relationship. The chorus, repeated twice, uses the metaphor of building walls to express how these emotional barriers can become so high that neither person can see each other anymore. The line, "Till the concrete angel falls," implies the inevitable destruction of everything they have built and the need to tear down those walls to keep the relationship from falling apart.


The last two lines of the chorus state, "I knew who you were from the start, but now I don't know who you are." This reveals the gradual loss of meaningful communication and understanding between the characters, which leads to a sense of despair and sadness. The song builds up to a raw and emotional climax in the final chorus, leaving the listener with a palpable sense of longing and loss.


Overall, Concrete Angel is a beautifully crafted song that deals with complex themes such as trust, communication, and emotional barriers. It reminds us of the importance of breaking down walls and staying emotionally open in order to build and maintain healthy relationships.


Line by Line Meaning

Let me breath you in, and breath the words in your mouth
I want to embrace every inch of you, and understand the thoughts inside your mind.


Inside your shivering, the silence shouts so loud
Although you may appear calm on the outside, I can sense the turmoil within you.


I just want to, I just want to stay around
I want to be a supportive presence in your life.


And while my heart beats I promise I won't let you down
As long as I'm alive, I'll continue to be there for you and care for you.


If I'm somewhere else it doesn't mean that I don't see
Even if I'm not physically with you, I'm still aware of your struggles.


That you don't trust yourself, that's why you don't trust me
You lack confidence in yourself, which makes it difficult for you to have faith in our relationship.


It makes me crazy, when you're crazy, you don't speak
Your silence during times of emotional distress is concerning and distressing for me as well.


You think you know me, but what you know is just skin deep
You may have an idea of who I am, but your understanding of me is superficial and incomplete.


If you keep building these walls
Your emotional barriers will only grow stronger.


Brick by brick towers so tall
Each time you put up another wall, it becomes more difficult for me to reach you.


Soon I won't see you at all
The more you distance yourself, the harder it will be for us to maintain a connection.


Till the concrete angel falls
Until you allow yourself to be vulnerable, our relationship is at risk of crumbling completely.


I knew who you were from the start
I initially had a strong understanding of who you are.


But now I don't know who you are
Due to your emotional withdrawal, I feel like I'm losing touch with who you truly are.


Soon there will be nothing at all
If we continue down this path, there may be nothing left of our relationship.


Till the concrete angel falls
Until you tear down your emotional walls, we won't be able to salvage what we had.

CONCRETE ANGEL

Let me breath you in and breath the words in your mouth
Inside your shivering, the silence shouts so loud
I just want to, I just want to stay around
And while my heart beats,
I promise I won't let you down

If I'm somewhere else it doesn't mean that I don't see
That you don't trust yourself,
That's why you don't trust me
It makes me crazy,
When you're crazy, you don't speak
You think you know me,
But what you know is just skin deep

If you keep building these walls,
Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all, until the concrete angel falls
I knew who you were from the start,
But now I don't know who you are
Soon there will be nothing at all,
Until the concrete angel falls

If you keep building these walls,
Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all, until the concrete angel falls
I knew who you were from the start,
But now I don't know who you are
Soon there will be nothing at all,
Until the concrete angel falls

@TFossett

Vocal trance needs to make a MASSIVE comeback!!

@StriatedSternum

So does hitler

@StoneShards

It's gotta be FEMALE vocal trance, for me!

@Arcessitor

@@StoneShards I don't think I've ever even heard male vocal trance. Seems to be pretty universally recognized that female vocals are the better option.

@StoneShards

@@Arcessitor <--Definitely the better option! But in my experience, male vocals come in at about 10-15% of vocal trance. And vocal trance is a niche subgenre of trance. So, there's precious little of this beauty to be had!
