Angels Won't Lie
Negative Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another wasted moment
Realising we're not real
Can you hear the angels calling?
When night is young and silence comes
You touch my face and I break down

Dreaming on
Tonight
We are safe and free
Under the wings
In the safest place
I close my eyes
For a while and you are there
We fly behind the stars
Where the distance ends, tonight

I'm sleeping with eyes wide open
You're my eyes when I'm not there
This everlasting angels calling
It can't be real, this must be a dream
You touch my face, you set me free

Dreaming on
Tonight
We are safe and free
Under the wings
In the safest place
I close my eyes
For a while and you are there
We fly behind the stars
Where the distance ends, tonight

When night is young and silence comes
You touch my face, and I break down
This can't be real, this must be a dream
You touch my face, you set me free

Dreaming on
Tonight
We are safe and free
Under the wings
In the safest place
I close my eyes
For a while and you are there
We fly behind the stars
Where the distance ends, forever free




Forever free
Free

Overall Meaning

The song "Angels Won't Lie" by Negative appears to be about finding solace in the presence of someone close to you, despite feeling disconnected from reality. The lyrics suggest that the singer is not sure if they are truly "real," as they feel a sense of disconnection and disillusionment with the world around them. However, in the presence of their loved one, they feel safe and free, as if they are "flying behind the stars" where "the distance ends," suggesting an escape from everyday life.


The lines "Can you hear the angels calling? / This everlasting angels calling" suggest that the singer is searching for something more profound in life, perhaps seeking a connection to a higher power, and that they believe that their loved one is helping them to find it. The final lines, "Forever free / Free," emphasize the sense of liberation that the singer feels when they are with their loved one, highlighting the power of this connection to help them transcend the boundaries of their everyday life.


Overall, "Angels Won't Lie" is a song that speaks to the complexities of human relationships, and how the people we care about can help us find meaning and purpose in life. It is a poignant, emotional song that touches on themes of love, loss, and self-discovery, and it is a testament to the power of music to express the deepest emotions and desires of the human heart.
