Angel
Sarah McLachlan(사라 맥라클란) Lyrics

Spend all your time waiting
You spend most of your time waiting for something to just go your way.

For that second chance
You're waiting for a shot at redemption or an opportunity to make things right.

For a break that would make it okay
You need a big break to happen that would make everything else in your life okay.

There's always some reason
There's always something that makes you feel like you're not good enough.

To feel not good enough
You consistently feel like you're not good enough for whatever reason.

And it's hard, at the end of the day
You find it difficult to deal with these feelings by the end of the day.

I need some distraction
You need something to distract yourself from these thoughts and feelings.

Oh, beautiful release
The distraction needs to be something beautiful to give you some relief from your negative thoughts and feelings.

Memories seep from my veins
Your past memories are so strong that they feel like they're running through your veins and controlling your thoughts and feelings.

And maybe empty
This distraction could leave you feeling empty inside.

Oh, and weightless, and maybe
You hope that this distraction will make you feel light and free instead of weighed down.

I'll find some peace tonight
You hope to find some peace and solace tonight thanks to this distraction.

In the arms of the angel
You find comfort and safety in the embrace of some kind of guardian or protector figure, such your angels or a loved one.

Fly away from here
You wish to fly away from your current situation and take a break from everything.

From this dark, cold hotel room
You feel trapped in a dark and cold place, like a hotel room, which seems to symbolize your current emotional state.

And the endlessness that you fear
You fear that your negative thoughts and feelings are going to go on forever without an end in sight.

You are pulled from the wreckage
You're being rescued or saved from the destruction and chaos of your unhappy state.

Of your silent reverie
You're in a silent state of deep thought, where you're lost in your emotions and unable to express yourself properly.

May you find some comfort here
You hope to find some solace and comfort in this safe and protected state.

So tired of the straight line
You're fed up with living such a straightforward and uneventful life.

And everywhere you turn
No matter where you look or what you do, you're constantly surrounded by things that are taking a toll on you.

There's vultures and thieves at your back
You feel like people around you are watching and waiting for you to fall so that they can take advantage of your problems and struggles.

The storm keeps on twisting
Your situations and emotions are constantly twisting and changing, like a storm on the horizon.

Keep on building the lies
You keep building more lies to protect yourself from the truth, pushing yourself further into this unhappy state.

That you make up for all that you lack
You make up stories to compensate for your perceived weaknesses or shortcomings, which only fuels your fears and anxieties even more.

It don't make no difference
It doesn't matter what you do, everything seems to end up the same.

Escape one last time
You're looking for one last escape from your feelings and problems, hoping it will bring some relief.

It's easier to believe in this sweet madness
You find it easier to believe in whimsical or irrational distractions instead of confront the harsh reality of your situation.

Oh, this glorious sadness
You're addicted to the feeling of sadness and depression, making it difficult to escape or overcome.

That brings me to my knees
This depression and sadness is so overwhelming and debilitating, it brings you to your knees both mentally and physically.

You're in the arms of the angel
You still find comfort in the idea of a guardian angel or protector that can offer you some relief or comfort.

May you find some comfort here
Ultimately, you hope to find some solace, relief, and comfort from your problems and situation within this safe and protected state.
