Angel Tongue
Light Asylum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Would you take it would you ...
And leave me with the rusty mark
That could not be undone
If I woke in the middle of the night
Would you corres my face
And tell me everything is allright
These are the words I need to hear
These words are never spoken
These words are tokens
These words are all sincere
It is always nice to see you
Around
If I gave you the key to my heart
Would you take it would you ...
And leave me with the rusty mark
That could not be undone
If I woke in the middle of the night
Would you corres my face
And tell me everything is allright
Noone could take my place
These are the words I need to hear
These words are never spoken
These words are tokens
These words are all sincere
It is always nice to see you
Around
When will you come
And Im staring at the sky
And youre missing in my life
When will you come
Will I ever see the sun
The lyrics of Light Asylum's song "Angel Tongue" speak to the vulnerability and longing of being in love with someone. The singer asks if the person they love would be willing to accept the key to their heart, and if they would leave a "rusty mark" that would never go away. This could mean that if the person they love were to break their heart, the hurt would stay with them forever.
The second verse describes the singer's desire for comfort and reassurance. They want to know that if they wake up in the middle of the night, the person they love would be there to tell them that everything is alright and that they are irreplaceable. The chorus repeats the first verse, emphasizing the importance of these words and the need for sincerity.
The bridge of the song reflects the singer's loneliness when the person they love is not around. They look up at the sky and wonder when they will come back into their life, and if they will ever see the sun again. The lyrics of "Angel Tongue" capture the emotional intensity of being in love and the uncertainty of whether that love will be returned.

If I gave you the key to my heart
If I trusted you enough to give you access to my deepest emotions and desires
Would you take it would you ...
Could I rely on you to handle my vulnerability with care and understanding
And leave me with the rusty mark
Or would you leave me wounded and damaged, with a permanent scar on my soul
That could not be undone
Which I could never fully recover from or forget
If I woke in the middle of the night
If I experienced anxiety or fear that needed to be soothed at any hour of the day or night
Would you corres my face
Would you calm me down with affectionate touches and intimate gestures
And tell me everything is allright
Would you reassure me that everything will be okay and that you are there for me
Noone could take my place
Recognizing that your presence and support are irreplaceable and unmatched by anyone else
These are the words I need to hear
These affirmations and expressions of love and devotion are crucial for my emotional well-being
These words are never spoken
Unfortunately, these loving and supportive words are often neglected or withheld in our relationships
These words are tokens
When they are finally expressed, they are precious gifts that reassure and strengthen our bond
These words are all sincere
And we must always believe in their authenticity and value.
It is always nice to see you Around
So appreciate seeing you and feel at ease in your presence
When will you come
When will we be reunited and able to share our lives again
And Im staring at the sky
In my longing and sadness, I sometimes look up to the heavens for comfort
And youre missing in my life
And feel the void and emptiness that your absence creates
Will I ever see the sun
Wondering if I will ever find happiness and light in my life again without you
