Angel
Leo Rojas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard, at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh, beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
And maybe empty
Oh, and weightless, and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting
Keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escape one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness
Oh, this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here




You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Leo Rojas's song "Angel" speak to the pain that people often carry around with them and the need for comfort and escape. The first stanza describes the feeling of waiting for something to change, for a second chance or a break that would make everything okay. However, there always seems to be some reason to feel not good enough and it becomes hard to carry on. In the second stanza, the singer describes needing some distraction and release from these feelings, something weightless that allows them to find peace in the moment.


The chorus speaks to the need to escape from the pain and fear, to fly away from the darkness and endlessness that seems to be suffocating. One is pulled from the wreckage of their silent reverie, their inner turmoil, and comforted in the arms of an angel. The third stanza speaks to the weariness of trying to stay on the straight line while vultures and thieves seem to constantly circle and twist the storm of one's life. However, escape is possible, even if only for a moment, through the glorious sadness that brings one to their knees and into the arms of an angel.

►May you take comfort in knowing an angel is watching over you...
Death is the last chapter in time but the first chapter in eternity.
Death is opposite of birth. Death is not opposite of life.
What takes birth dies but the life continues.
