TIX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't make her stay
When I know that she's so far above
How could she ever love
Someone like me
She's out of reach
Here in the dark, inside the hole in my heart
And I'm still not sure
What you ever saw in me
No
I'ma, I'ma fallen angel
And no matter where my heart is there's no way I'll ever
Reach up to Heaven to ya
She's so far outta this world
No way I could ever be with her
'Cause I know Heaven's your home
That's where angels belong
And it wouldn't be fair
If I keep you down here
Here in the dark, inside the hole in my heart
I'm fighting all of my demons tryna tear me apart
And I'm still not sure
What you ever saw in me
No
I'ma, I'ma fallen angel
Tryna fly but I'm not able, oh
And I need you to know
That it's okay to let me go
'Cause no matter where my heart is there's no way I'll ever
Reach up to Heaven to ya
I'ma, I'ma fallen angel
Yeah, I'ma, I'ma fallen angel
And I'm still not sure
What you ever saw in me
No
I'ma, I'ma fallen angel
Tryna fly but I'm not able, so
Just let me go (I'ma, I'ma fallen angel)
'Cause no matter where my heart is there's no way I'll ever
Reach up to Heaven to ya
Tix's song "Fallen Angel" is about feeling unworthy of someone's love, specifically someone who the singer perceives as being above them. The lyrics are about struggling with self-doubt and feeling like there's no way to improve oneself enough to deserve love from this person. The singer acknowledges that this person is "out of reach" and "so far above" them, and that they could never "reach up to heaven to ya" to be with them.
Throughout the song, the singer is battling their inner demons and the feeling that they don't deserve love. They know that this person is "where angels belong," but they can't help but feel the longing to be with them. The lyrics in the song imply that the singer would rather let this person go and find someone who is more deserving of their love than hold onto a relationship that is not fair to the other person.
The song explores the theme of self-worth and how it can impact our perceptions of relationships. It highlights the importance of recognizing our struggles with self-doubt and how it can limit our ability to form meaningful connections with others.
