Angel
Lace Lyrics

You spend all your time waiting for that second chance
You are constantly holding out in hopes for a new opportunity.

For the break that will make it ok
You are waiting for a chance that will turn your life around and make things better.

There's always some reason
There seems to be a constant justification for why you're not good enough.

To feel not good enough
You constantly feel as if you are not adequate or deserving of the good things in life.

And it's hard at the end of the day
The struggle becomes harder to cope with as the day comes to a close.

I need some distraction
You are in need of something to take your mind off of your troubles.

Oh, beautiful release
You are searching for something to bring you relief from your struggles and pain.

Memories seep from my veins
Painful memories continuously resurface and cause emotional distress.

Let me be empty, oh and weightless and maybe
You want to feel nothingness and ease the burden of your pain.

I'll find some peace tonight
You hope to find some tranquility and comfort in the midst of your struggles.

In the arms of the angel
A comforting presence that provides solace and comfort.

Far away from here
A distance from the situation that brings about emotional pain.

From this dark, cold hotel room
Escaping the depressing and lonely environment that amplifies your struggles.

And the endlessness that you fear
The feeling that your situation is unending and will forever be a source of pain and difficulty.

You are pulled from the wreckage
You are rescued from the damaging aftermath of your struggles and emotional turmoil.

Of your silent reverie
The internal turmoil, sadness or pain that is constantly present but not expressed outwardly.

May you find some comfort here
The hope that the comfort being offered will provide some relief from the emotional pain.

So tired of the street life
Being exhausted from living on the streets in poor conditions.

And everywhere you turn
In every place you go, you are met with hardship.

There's vulture and thieves at your back
People or circumstances that drain resources and take advantage of those in a vulnerable state.

The storm keeps on twisting
The situation continuously worsens and becomes more chaotic.

Keep on building the lies
Continuing to create false beliefs to mask the negative reality.

That you make up for all that you lack
Compensating or hiding for what you are perceived to be missing or insufficient in.

It don't make no difference
There is no noticeable change or impact on the struggles, regardless of what is done to try and mitigate them.

Escape one last time
Attempting to find one final way out of the difficult situation.

So much easier to believe
Holding onto the hope that things will get better is more comfortable than facing the reality of the situation.

In this sweet madness
The comforting delusion that there is a way out of the situation, regardless of the likelihood.

All the glorious sadness
Acknowledging the beauty found in sadness and the emotional release of mourning a loss or tragedy.

Brings me to my knees
The overwhelming emotional weight and exhaustion that comes with going through a difficult situation.
