Rainbow
Mel T. Eyes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With his rainbow wings and a pack of lies
I had my suspicions but they were ignored
Far away the angel cries
How far away the angel sings
Don´t sell your soul for a pack of lies
Don´t sell your soul
I watched him preach from the book of greed
With promises of glory and how we´ll succeed
I had my suspicions but they were ignored
Far away the angel cries
How far away the angel sings
Don´t sell your soul for a pack of lies
Don´t sell your soul
Far away the angel cries
How far away the angel sings
Don´t sell your soul for a pack of lies
Don´t sell your soul
The song "Rainbow" by Mel T. Eyes is about the dangers of selling one's soul for temporary gains. The lyrics depict a person who has encountered the devil in disguise with his deceptive "rainbow wings" and "pack of lies". Despite having their suspicions, they ignore them and choose to listen to the devil's promises of success and glory. However, the angel cries in the distance, warning the person not to sell their soul for these temporary pleasures.
The metaphor of the devil having "rainbow wings" is interesting because it is usually associated with positivity and hope but in this song, it is used to convey the negative and deceptive nature of the Devil. It also shows how the Devil can use even the most positive symbols against us.
The repeated lines of "Far away the angel cries" and "How far away the angel sings" give an eerie tone to the song, creating a sense of distance between the person and the angel. It also suggests that the angel's warning is being ignored or not heeded - emphasizing the message of the song.
